I'm not as good as Phil at fancy names for things, but even though I didn't manage much last month, I did feel it helped and I figured some more of it would be good for this month. But rather than set a common goal, I'm gonna make this thread a bit more free. You can set what writing goal you want, and come March 31st, we'll see how well we have done. So here we go:
1. Set your own goal.
2. Declare it in this thread.
3. Post regular updates on your progress towards your goal throughout the month.
4. At the end of the month, report on the success of your goal.
I will edit this post to record goals posted below.
Goals can be anything related to writing - word targets, habit forming targets, development or editing targets. Just as long as it is measurable and achievable within the 31 days of March.
If you want to check in every day when you write, Phil has created a thread for that in Writing Groups. So clock in over there, but you can discuss your goal and how you're doing on it whenever you like here too.
Participants and Goals
Chilari: Write for seven consecutive days for one hour each day, twice during March. (one set of seven consecutive days done, one set to go).
Svrtnsse: Finish Chapter 8 (finished outline); write at least one hour every single day.
Philip Overby: Finish first draft by 22 March. Finish 3 short stories. Start editing Novel #1. Start brainstorming Novel #3.
Steerpike: Finish and publish first installment of WIP (with editor); write first draft of novella.
Ruby: Write for 30 minutes every day.
Aspasia: Completely plan out 2 projects. Write 1k words. Decide major elements of scifi project.
Landmarks on a goal are in green in brackets. Completed goals are turned green and bold.
Who else is in, and what is your goal?
