Hello again! This is your really late monthly check-in-- how did you do with March's pledge? Check back in over there and you receive a surprise banner!
(Even if you didn't reach your goal, as long as you wrote words, check in anyway!)
Let's do this again for April, yes? Thankfully with word wars and Camp Nano I'm sure we can all write a weeeee bit more than we did last month, too. ;)
We all say we want to write, but sometimes we just... never get around to it. It's not an uncommon problem, but maybe this can help. Sometimes the declaration of intent, of publicly saying "This month, I will write this number of words" is enough to kick our arses in gear, so why don't we hold ourselves accountable to each other?
Let's:
a) declare the number of words we want to write for the month (check in with a current total word count of all your projects if you have a few ongoing ones)
b) write, write, write!
c) check back in at the end -- there are banners in store for those who reach their goal!
No word count is too big or too small. Start with something you think you can manage. And don't worry if you don't reach it, either! All words are great words--the important thing is getting in the habit of setting a goal.
Good luck!
