Thoughts of the Week
Total Words This Week: 5,478
Total Words This Week: 5,478
Decided to list some of my thoughts I've had during the week to give you a little more insight on my progress and/or struggles.
- Seems I'm able to write the amount of words I need (667) daily in about a half hour to 45 minutes depending on how motivated or inspired I am.
- I can consistently write about 700 words a day, maybe even more but I don't want to push myself too much or I may get burned out. This seems like an acceptable daily word count but I may up it to 800 after the month if I can.
- I'm realizing I'm using a bunch of filler words and gestures. I'm going to need to edit a lot.
- The story isn't even nearly done, it will likely be a novella.
- I thought I'd spend more time writing during my vacation this week but I ended working on other projects I've been wanting to do for months which is great because it will help support my writing. I still was able to go above the word goals but I wanted to finish it by then but I mostly spent it trying to recover and relax.
- Part of the previous bullet, I'm planning to move blogs after I finish with Campnano. All my content will move to the new blog so please keep a look out! I'll be announcing it on my social media as well! I'm excited to share it with you guys!
