WIP Challenge Check-in, Day 3 -- Wednesday

[linaewen]

Hello on Wednesday! Sorry about missing yesterday; I was traveling and by the time I got home and settled, it was pretty late to be posting for Tuesday!

What kind of a writing day has it been today -- or yesterday, if today hasn't gotten going yet?

•     I thought about my fic once or twice
•     I wrote
•     I did some planning and/or research
•     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

Discussion: Do you make an effort to write every day? If so, what kind of habits help you stick to that goal? What helps and what doesn't? (I'm asking selfishly, because I need help with this!)

I've done no writing so far this week. Hope that will change as of today! I want to get into the habit of writing every day, even if it's for just a short period of time. The main thing is to not let other responsibilities and priorities mess with my writing time!

I'm still trying to decide what to write for Remix. I have three options, and all three have pluses and minuses. I've got to get started because stories are due the 21st (or maybe the 20th. I have to check).

I haven't written every day since some time in March, right around when metanews became a very large job. I want to get back to writing most days and confine metanews to two days a week, but I'm having a lot of trouble doing it.

Busy day today, so I dealt with life. See, I try to write every day, but there are days when I know from the get-go that it's probably not going to happen.

Right now I'm back to trying to write every day, or rather five days a week. I am only just starting this experiment, and so unsure of how it will go. I am also switching my focus to try and get a better balance between fanfic and original material.
