( And here is a graph. )

Progress on specific June goals:

1. Write an average of 6 days per week. Missed badly. I can partly blame this on my sick kitty distraction, but not entirely.

2. Claim and work on my dragonagebb Reverse Bang fic. Claim and progress made, but I'm not as far along on this as I'd like to be.

3. Write and hopefully finish the last of my giveaway fics. Barely touched this, alas. I'll have to get back to it when my DABB is finished.

4. Participate in the 31 Days of Hawke meme that a number of us will be doing on Tumblr. Success! And I think it went pretty well. You can read all my answers here, and I'll try to do a master post here later today.

This is not so good. I wish the DABB were coming more smoothly -- it's almost all I worked on this month, outside a little bit on the giveaway fic and one and a half stories for an iTunes-based writing exercise. Perversely, I think part of the problem is my too-open schedule. I always think there will be time to write "later", then later doesn't come. I'll need to think about this. Meanwhile, it's halfway through the year! How are those 2013 goals looking?

( Behind the cut )

Okay, some goals for July:

1. Write an average of six days per week.

2. Finish and submit dragonagebb Reverse Bang fic (due date: July 18th).

3. Make serious progress on giveaway fic and the next chapter of Iron Holmes.

4. Don't sign up for anything else. Yes, that's a goal. Hold me to it. Summer is for finishing.
