float_on_alright: (appealed to the writer)
For the month I needed at least 6,200 for the whole month, but I decided to add another 1000 as things have been going so well.

4100 / 7200 (56.94%)



Out of those 7200 - 1000 need to be in Fairytale AU. So I've got a measure for that too :) I just love measures!

900 / 1000 (90.00%)

Okay so well I can't remember what all I typed in my writing update that I did the other night which I have to say is REALLY annoying me at the moment.

Annnnyyyyywhoooo - 

So I've got goals! Writing goals, to be more specific.

I'll start with Writo De Mayo with [livejournal.com profile] nanoljers  which I have a goal of writing at least 200 words everyday (with a few rules about days I can "slack" though I haven't done so yet). So far, so good, and I'm actually really excited. Two hundred words may not seem like a lot, but when you've been working 15 hours on a few hours sleep, I feel like I've accomplished something. Even 10 hours is a lot of work. 

I'm also doing [livejournal.com profile] nanoljers  which is on the 4th day. Part of my goal for May was also to write at least 1000 new words in Fairytale AU and I wanted to use this week to get at least 700 of those. As of today, I have 700 new words! So I'll easily have the rest of the 300 for the month by the end of the week, which is great news. Since that's true, I've decided that my new goal is to create a new scene for the story as I've only added to and edited what scenes I'd already started. I'm not necessarily going to have it complete, but I do want to have it in relative working order with enough "meat" to be able to add to it even if I don't get around to adding more for another month after this. 
 
I think I'm going to make a work county thing-y and post it shortly...

My second [livejournal.com profile] gsd_rtfn week was a success! Fabulous news. Now, when May starts, I'm going to be working nearly exclusively (that's my goal anyway) on a fic I started... oh probably two months ago? -  which I thought was going to be a simple, straight forward, quick, cute AU one shot. That does not seem to be the case. Now, this is no novel (at least I don't think it will be, if it does turn out to bed one I don't know how I'll ever manage to edit it), but it has gotten much longer than expected and I really don't think it's anywhere near complete. I have to figure out exactly how the ending is going to work too. I have the general idea, but the there's a lot of technicalities I haven't quite got figured out yet. My point (I'm loopy, exhausted, and my eyes are going crossed so please forgive me) is that, starting May 1st, the majority of my writing time will be dedicated to making that story work as a unit (I have loads of parts written that need to be connected) which means I won't have a lot of time for my other stories. Because that is the case, my goal is to have Truth or Dare Part 5 ready for the editor's desk by the time I go to bed on the night of April 30th/ the morning of May 1st. 

At this point my eyes are too tired to focus very well so editing this/reading over this to see if it makes sense is nigh impossible. Plus I really can't be bothered. Sorry for that. Maybe I'll fix it tomorrow, but probably not. 

Night ladies and gents. 

P.S./Note to Self: It is probably not a good thing that you prioritize your "to write" goal over all the other things on your "to do" list. Some days I wonder how you manage to get to work.
