Perpetual Ruminations

Wednesday

I didn't get any writing in my journal yesterday, and that is kind of a bummer. I had a good day, I got a lot done, but I didn't make it into WdC until late, and then I completely spaced writing in here.

I was pretty tired and getting set to go to bed, but I still can't believe I completely forgot. Oh well, it's not the end of the world. I did get some writing done in my novel for NaNo, and that's the main thing right now. I set a goal in here yesterday for at least 750 words a day for NaNo for this week. Of course, I will have to continue through the month until I get my novel done and meet or exceed the 50,000 words, but for this week it's 750 a day and the end date is this Friday.

Why? Well, I know I can punch out 750 words a day for a month or more, from when I was journalling in 750 Words. Also, the WdC goal challenge starts on Monday and ends on Friday, so I set my goal up two days ago. I will post my results on Friday, but my goal will continue on until I win NaNo, and have an end written for my novel.

The idea is that if I can make it through this first week, starting November 1 and ending November 7, I can do another week, and if I can do the first two weeks, I can make it the second two weeks. I made good progress on the 1st, the 2nd, and the 3rd, set my goal and did great again on the 4th, and then yesterday I got busy with things around the house and had to scramble a bit to get my writing done. I made it, with just a little over the 1667 words daily limit for NaNo, and way over my 750. So far, so good.

Now, it's off to work, then after, I have a monthly report to write and send. I know I'll be tired, not much sleep last night, and I still have to work on my novel, hopefully finishing the chapter I'm on and getting a start on the next chapter.

Well see how it's going this afternoon, I may need a nap first before I write.
