October update; November goals
How is it November again already?
Days written: 27/31
Words written: 9,212
Words of fic written: 7,798
Stories worked on: Three
Stories posted: Two
Specific goals for October:
1. Write 6 days per week, including while traveling (I'm taking a long weekend to DC this month). Not on a weekly basis, but on average yes, and a little better than, somewhat to my astonishment.
2. Finish first Ladies Bingo story and start at least one more. I finished and posted one story, but not until yesterday.
3. Draft a subject-to-change outline and at least two more sections on Wardens of Ivalice. Not remotely. I didn't even open the first. I started the month on the bingo story, and then set that and everything else aside because of a GREAT BIG PLOT BUNNY that took over my writing life for the rest of the month. So that's going to have to take priority until it's done.
4. Continue reading for Latinx Book Bingo and write at least two substantial reviews. I've read four books so far, and posted about my progress on the last day of the challenge; I just picked up the fifth of the six books I was planning to read today. But I've only done quick reviews on GoodReads so far.
So, November.
1. Post something publicly to my journal every day. Considering how little I've been posting lately, this might be akin to signing up to run a marathon when I haven't left the couch for a year, but I'm a sucker for traditions. Still requires motiving myself to write about things, though. Would anyone leave prompts if I asked for them?
2. Write every day. A DW post only counts if it meets the definition of a writing day as laid out in my writing goals for 2018. Writing for LB group posts does not count for these purposes.
3. Make substantial progress on the plot bunny story (as it happens, it's a TAZ: Balance fic). I plan to make this story my primary project for the month. It would be great to finish, but it's already grown in the telling, so I don't want to over-promise.
4. Pick another Ladies Bingo prompt and work on it.
Good enough for a November. Especially this November.
