Weekly Goals

Last year, I focused a lot on quantity in my writing: making sure I wrote a little every day, producing new stories constantly. This year, I plan on focusing more on quality. There are a lot of things I need to improve in my writing, and to help achieve that, I've set up a sort of do-it-yourself MFA with writing and reading exercises. I've taken a break from this setup the last couple of week (due to holidays and a story that begged to be written), but this weak, I'm going to return to my exercises.

Comple at least one writing exercise every day: This is the big goal for me this weak. I have a list of exercise for the current focus area in my DIY MFA, and I need to do one of them every day. Also, I should make sure I have enough time and energy to really focus on the exercise when doing it, or it will just be wasted time.

Read and analyze at least one story from my reading list: I still have two stories I need to re-read and analyze for my current focus area. I don't expect that I'll have time to read both this week, but at least one of them should be doable.

Do a WYRM review: This a recurrent goal for me. I should review at least one chapter/story in the WYRM group.

Be active on the Codex Writers forum: Another recurrent goal. It's vauge, I know, but it's also my lowest priority, so it's always the one that I have the least time for. I need to remain active on the Codex forum.
