( Charts are tireder than they ought to be today. )
Specific goals:
1. Write an average of 6 days per week. Stretch goal: 500 words per day, which won't catch me up entirely, but will get me a good bit of the way there. lol no. I just barely managed 5 days a week and didn't catch up to my wordcount goal at all. A couple of reasons for this, which I will get to below.
2. Finish and post SSR Confidential story -- due June 7th, so I have to prioritize this. Complete! I never did crosspost that here, so here you go -- it's a story about Jason Wilkes, and what happened to him after Season 2.
3. Once that's done, finish a draft of the crossover. Not remotely, and I think this is why I had such a hard time writing this month. This story is giving me real trouble, I think because it's not really a plot bunny; it's a premise bunny, which pulls out some character moments but doesn't give me any direction to take them. It doesn't help that, as far as I know, no artist has claimed my story, so I don't even have that as incentive. Posting starts at the end of this month, and there is just no way I'll be ready for that. I'm not sure what's going to happen here but I do intend to keep plugging away.
4. At least two posts for Lady Business -- for real this time -- and catch up on my GoodReads reviewing, which is woefully behind right now. Only got LB post, although I did catch up on GoodReads at least.
It's also time for a mid-year check on annual goals.
( For length )
I'm actually in better shape on annual goals that I expected, which suggests that I chose them reasonably well. Let's see if I do the same for July:
1. Write at least 5 days per week. This seems to be about what I can manage right now, so if I can push myself to 6 or even 7 on any one week it's a bonus, not a necessity to catch up.
2. Write a post about the week's media consumption every Friday. Catchy column title suggestions welcome.
3. Finish a draft of the CR/DA crossover.
4. At least two posts for Lady Business (this should be easy, since I have to do my midyear media roundup and finish my Hugo reading by the end of the month, both obvious topic choices).
