float_on_alright | March Check List (Reply)

1) Read "Hunger Games" for Book Club.

Check!

2) Finish the 3rd part of "You're to Blame" or all the parts of my table, preferably both, but realistically that's likely to be too much.

Finished part 3 of "You're to Blame", finished one story from the table. So Check.

3) Write at least as much in March as I did in February.

Check, but more on this later

4) Work on the money situation.

Going alright. Mostly. Eh. Work in Progress.

5) Say yes to one social-able invitation that includes more than book club, fellowship, or friends who live in a different area, preferably involving people who you have not hung out with socially in the past.

Eh. Did go to a birthday party... Eh.

6) Make it so that you aren't the only one who can see the improvements in your living spaces.

Cleaned the crap out of my room. You can sit on the couch! Still got a junk desk essentially, but the improvement was "photo worthy". Should've taken a before and not just after pics.

7) Finish at least one, preferably two alphabet challenge books.

I did read two books for my alphabet list: Vanish and Kiss or Kill.

8) Decide of pointless posts like these count towards writing, and if so how to include them in the count... If they do count, require the word count for March be higher than that of February by at least 500 words.

Ah yes. So the decision was yes. I did include my ramblings from livejournal.

In February, I ended up with about 17,000 words which I didn't think was too shabby. Did I beat it? Yes, yes I did.

Okay, I know it's really silly, but I'm actually super excited about how much writing I did this month. The story I worked on the most is about to be edited so it is going to be a while before it is posted, though I'm very excited about it as it is the longest single part piece I've written.

The grand total end of the month word count? 27,100 meaning I wrote 10,000 more words this month than last.

There's no way in hell I do that in April, but it sure as hell felt awesome to write so very much when there are so many other things going on as well with work, other goals, and things with my family.
