#writinggoals
1038 words writen with as many spelling mistakes this morning, out of 16057 total.
16k in 14 days, when my goal is 1000/daym, it feels quite good.
Sure, there are many 'deleted' paragraphs and whole scenes. And by deleted I mean strickthrough format, and I'm still counting them.
One thing learned from the defunct NaNo and primarly longhand writing (no deleting option you see).
#PennedPossibilities 615 — What is the best time of day for you to write? (Early or late morning, midday, afternoon, or nighttime?)
(don't think I answered any Penned Possibilities before)
I dare say morning.
Preferably not at home but on some cozy café.
That said, I do mine most in the evening, before sleep, because if I don't, I'll miss my daily goal.
Struggling to stay consistent with your writing? I set a simple 500-word daily goal — and it transformed my productivity. 
Read how word goals changed my writing routine.

I've asked before, but I'm trying to figure out what kinds of #editinggoals I can set. I have a 500 words a day goal to write, but I'd like to start working in some editing. Anyone have any ideas? Pages? Minutes?
Oldest woke up early today. So I wrote on my phone while I sat in bed trying to get him back to sleep. Not sure I’ll get too many more words in today, with no school and all this snow outside, but I’m happy I got something done.

Why is it so hard for me to get down to #writing when the kids are at school? I want to get so much done, but its hard to sit here and focus when I have the chance to mentally breathe.
On day 2 of having a writing goal:
-I have a goal every day, even on days when I’m a full time dad and have no time.
-it makes me feel accomplished, even with low word count.
-I check my count too often and stop writing.
-might not be the best words

I feel lucky to have met this goal pretty early today. Hopefully I can get a few more words in during nap/quiet time.

Happy New Year, everyone!
As is my annual tradition, I've written a retrospective blog post about my writing progress and goals in 2024, and set some goals for 2025.
Read it here!

@annathepiper Reworking goals feels so much like changing the goalposts. It’s not. It’s so not. Assessment time and debriefing projects is not passing judgement on self — it’s just us glamorizing some of our goals over others (like word count). New Month! New Goals! Writing is being done! Every word is closer to the celebration!

#wordcount
I don't do word counts because they yuck my low-focus yum. I do checkpoints. My #WritingGoals for Project Mega are:
Herd A-story characters to X part of the story; bonus points if you also get the B-story character to Y part of the story. Triple bonus if you get certain marked characters away from A-story and B-story into C-story. Think of ways to weave in B-story-subplot-A and B-story-subplot-B if vibes.
I blame George R. R. Martin for this nonsense.
#WritingGoals rather than look for prompts, look for the truth that hasn't been told nearly enough. Thanks to @taliesingovannon on Threads for hipping me to this one.
#writinggoals even plot holes have a purpose.

I saw a review today of The Bride and the Buccaneer: "Sex book. Not too graphic." Dang, and here I'd thought I'd made it plenty graphic! #books #writinggoals

Interdisciplinary academics are often trying to balance the language and conventions of so many fields that our own writing voice can get subsumed. If you’re feeling disconnected from your #WritingGoals this year, it might be a good time to think about getting back in touch with your writing voice.
