March Writing Goals Report; April Writing Goals

[rsadelle]

Report on March:
I again had a day when I just couldn't do anything. Other than that:

• 200 words per day during the week and 500 words per day on weekends of the novel. I managed 200 words every day, but I don't think I ever made it to 500 words a day on a weekend day. I think writing my novel doesn't feel so urgent now that I have a job.


• 100 words per day of the Mike/Kevin story. I did this until I finished it.


• 200 words per day of the actor!Gabe/director!Victoria (my big bang story). Check!


• Edit the accidental marriage fic. This still didn't happen.


• Put in some work on the Joe/Nick control fic. This didn't happen. Sadly, I think it's time for it to come off the list.


• Write miscellaneous snippets as inspired. Check!


• Say positive things on Twitter. This went fairly well. I ended up posting a lot of fic bits I probably won't finish instead of complaining. I don't know how that worked for other people, but I felt less like I was whining all the time.

April goals:

• 200 words per day during the week and 300 words per day on weekends of the novel. Maybe I'll meet my goal if it's smaller, and then maybe I can work my way up.


• Finish the actor!Gabe/director!Victoria (my big bang story) by writing at least 200 words per day. This has to happen because the rough draft and summary are due April 30.


• Edit the accidental marriage fic. This is staying on the list until it happens!


• Read through the Mike/Kevin story at least once, even without doing a real edit.


• Work on at least one thing for my bingo card.


• Finish the girl!Andy and Matt slept together once story. It just needs the rest of the sex scene and a rewrite of the scene where they play pool, and I've spent a lot of time thinking about the sex scene.


• Write miscellaneous snippets as inspired.


• Say positive things on Twitter.
