I wasn’t able to meet my goal yesterday, which actually would have made up for what I missed on Friday and Saturday as WELL as Sunday’s goal. I had lots of plans for yesterday, including cleaning part of the apartment, going to the grocery store, writing, and hanging out with friends. I got as far as a shower and some writing, thanks to being felled by a mid-afternoon migraine. Thankfully I felt better by about 7, but I am so tired post-migraine that it’s hard for me to do much else. I have under 2,000 more words to write to catch up, which I feel confident that I can do tonight.
The important thing to me was that I had written something. I feel a lot better having only written a little rather than not writing at all. I really want to buckle down and get a bunch done this week, because I know that this weekend I’m going to be in happy new iPhone owner land, going out on a date with my husband, hanging out with friends and generally relaxing. I have to keep the momentum going through the week to make my August goal.

I met (and slightly exceeded) my word count goal for today. I didn’t really feel like writing but I did it anyway, and it was a lot more fun that I thought it would be. I’m tired, I don’t feel well, but I got my word count. I love seeing that number go up!

Even though I haven’t been working on my novel, I have been writing. I wrote a couple new music reviews for CultureFeast, and I have been writing blog posts like a mad woman for this blog as well as my tech blog, Daily Tech Diva. But I’m itching to get back to work on my novel, and I have some big plans to get my notes in order and plugged into SuperNotecard. I think I have decided to use it since it is cross-platform…I really want something I can access on my Mac and my eeePC. Oh, how I wish Scrivener was open-source and cross-platform.
Tonight’s goal is small–at least 1,000 words. Usually when I set a smaller goal like that I have no trouble meeting it AND exceeding it. I know I have to kind of ease back into things, but I’d like to get up to 10,000 words written for the month. I have through Saturday, so that’s a very realistic goal. Wish me luck!
