Setting Lofty Goals
Okay, I’m already 369 words ahead of the minimum writing goal for today of 16667. I’m setting the goal for myself to have a total of 25K words by the end of Friday. That would mean, literally, writing 7964 words in a little under four days. That would be writing 1991 words a day. That, I’m pretty sure I can do. I’m actually getting into my story, and I’m loving it. Plus, I have people going “can I read, can I read, can I read” constantly, so that really is helping keep me on track.
I am noticing though that I write more when I’m on a time crunch. Meaning, I have to write during commercials of my favorite shows. Otherwise, I can’t force myself to do it. I need to work on that. If I really want to become a professional writer, I need to not just float on the current way that I am. I need to push myself harder.
For now, though, I have a few other commitments I need to work on. Ciao!
