WIP Challenge Check-in, Day 31 -- Sunday

[linaewen]

 Hello on Sunday!  What kind of a writing day has it been so far today -- or if today hasn't gotten going yet, how did you fare yesterday?

 

       - I thought about my fic once or twice

       - I wrote

       - I did some planning and/or outlining

       - I did research and/or canon review

       - I edited

       - I've sent my fic off to my beta

       - I posted today!

       - I'm taking a break

       - I did something else that I'll talk about in a comment

 

Sunday Discussion:  It's a new writing week, and the last day of the current month.  With a new month comes a fresh start.  Maybe you had a great writing week, or maybe last week wasn't the greatest for getting writing things done -- what kind of goals do you have for starting off fresh this week?

I had a bit of a break this weekend, so I need a fresh start in the new month. If I do any writing today it will be fun fic WIP stuff, but tomorrow I have to start in on the next blog article due at the end of the week. My main goals are just to make sure I take time for writing every day and not procrastinate!

I did some outlining and typing from the outline. My mojo isn't quite with it today. It been a fic_rush/fic_rush_48 weekend has helped a bit.

Over the month I got almost all of the not!fic bits done for my Janeway/Chakotay series to try to keep the thing sort of organised. I added two more fics to it. I also did some fics for fan_flashworks.

This week and through the month the plan finish the next fic in my series and have that posted by next weekend, it shouldn't take me too long to do because some of it is fairly straightfoward to write. Then decide what the next fic will be. More fills at fan_flashworks too.

I'm in a strange mental state today so instead of writing or editing, I cleaned up a couple of just about ready and/or beta-read chapters and posted those! Clearing up some mental space :)

This last week started rough but ended strong, for writing! I didn't sleep well last night, though, so I'm having a little trouble getting going.

This week, I'm hoping to continue to get in the habit with the pomodoro timer! It's been a really good way to mentally switch into writing mode.

Also!!! I'm hosting a TMNT-themed prompt bingo fest at allbingo for the month of April, so I'm very excited about that! :D That's definitely a part of my writing plans this week. I'm going to aim for a full blackout on a 5x5 card and see how far I get.

Ooooh fun, good luck with the bingo fest! :D

Thank you!

My body was feeling a bit worn out, today, so I spent most of today taking a day off and reading a book. Going to set some 15 minute timers tonight and try to fill in a scene I have mostly dialogue for.

I’m back to school after break starting Tuesday, so most of my attention will be on surviving the week. My achievable goal is to make sure I open my writing documents at least once a day, and jot down notes for future writing if they occur to me. My stretch goal is to fill in some lines here and there, and maybe add to scenes. And my “somehow I miraculously gained time to do this” goal is to finish some important scenes and send them to my writing partner!

I like this goal, "opening the document at least once a day"! Sometimes it's just the set up that feels overwhelming, and if nothing else it sounds like a great to build/keep up a habit :) Good luck with the week!

Finished off the month well and actually hit par for my GYWO daily goal on this last day of March! Very excited.

Probably no writing this week, unless I happen to sneak in some during breaks or something. Prepping for surgery on Thursday, so I'll need to be slightly more focused on non-writing things until then. Here's hoping the recovery time will be full of writing!

[vriddy]

Congratulations on reaching your daily goal, and good luck with the surgery!
