Okay, lets face it - my writing output this year has been abysmal at best. I had that short burst of Henry/Karen last month but on the whole I'm not getting a whole lot done and that makes me feel really sad and inadequate.
So, I'm gonna do what I should have done in the first place. In addition to my monthly goals (which aren't stopping) I'm going to set a daily goal and post whether I made it or not and give myself time to ramble on what I'm working on. This serves two purposes, one to make a public showing and force myself to try and meet my goals (seriously, I do better under pressure - even if it is all in my head) and two, to get me *excited* about my writing again. Because right now, I'm kind of hating everything I do. I think if I have a forum to talk about what I'm writing and maybe someone else will get excited and comment (please do!) and that will lead to me writing even more because I want to finish it and show anyone excited about it the finished product.
I don't know if that makes sense or not. BUT it stands. So, for now until I say otherwise, I'm establishing a minimum daily word count of 500 hundred words. This is easy and achievable and if I hit it often enough, I'll adjust it higher. For now, I'm happy with that.
So, you'll be hearing from me before I go to bed and you can see how I did. <3
