Starting the Year off Right

I'm finally feeling mostly human (and going to surprise my D&D group tonight since I said I wasn't going to attend, but I'm feeling better) so hoping to get back into the swing of things. I've made the goal of writing 250 words a day for the month, but made a good dent with today's 310. I feel good about what I wrote and hope that I can keep on track and have a good year.

kaige68, hope you have a productive day tomorrow!

(Also does anyone have any idea what's going on with LJ and Russia?)

August Goals Review and September Goals

I absolutely need to work on balancing things more, but I also took a shift on what I had been planning in a few cases. I’ve made some changes, some alterations and hopefully my goals will be accomplished as I move forward.

Goals for the Month

A friend, badfalcon, mentioned making goals for writing and life each month when she did her goal wrap up for July. I love goals (my ADHD does so love goals) so I decided I would go ahead and make goals for this month.

Writing
--Write two chapters for Blood Oath
--Draft up characters for Bingo cards
--Write minimum one website article
--Write 215 words a day

Life
--D&D at least twice
--Finish a sewing project and start another
--Clean a section of the office

Work
--Finish up computers
--Get Reading Bowl and Makerspace Club set up
--Prep the second set of books and plans

I didn’t want to get too crazy this month, but having three goals for each makes me feel like I can accomplish everything. (Yes, I know there are four goals for Writing, but the word count is just part of doing my writing.)

Let me know if you’re doing goals or have plans! Let’s cheer each other on.
(And I know I haven’t posted on here in quite a while, but now I’ll probably be posting at least once a month as I do goals and report each month.)

Advent Day 7!

Happy 7th day of Advent. I still have more than I wanted to do before Christmas, but at least I shouldn't have to go into the stores again.

(Silly me booked two doctors' visits tomorrow... and I need to bake Christmas bread before brunch on Christmas Eve.)

Anyway... I bring you a 9-1-1 Christmas fic Have Yourself a Merry... A Buck/Tommy fic. Rated teen for some kissing.
I have no idea where my day went. I got up and took my sister Uptown** for her date, picked her up again, and went to the salon at 130 and the next thing I knew it was 6pm and my entire day was gone. I have NO idea where my day went. But I got 181 words and hopefully I'll get close to finishing my chapter today (I need less than 200 words to finish). Meanwhile... I'm woefully behind on my count for the month, but I've had some super good months so I'm not too worried about it. Once I go put my clothes away, I'll work more on my words.

backrose_17, I hope you're having a fantastic writing day to start your week!

**Uptown for those of you that don't live in my weird ass city is actually the downtown area, but because it's Up from most of the city--the locals refer to it as Uptown. I'm starting to get into the habit because no one knows what I'm talking about when I say downtown.

Busy Lazy Day

I intended for today to be a lazy day... (it's my last unbooked Saturday for the next four weeks), but ended up doing a lot. Got the laundry done, worked on posters for work, put the registration on the car (only 10 days late), watched our shows with dragonydreams, returned some stuff (by mail), and got my sister's package ready to mail.

I also wrote 604 words... although none of them were on the stories I need to finish.

I also think I've decided what I'm going to prep for NaNo (although I don't do NaNo).

Successful Day!

I had a busy day... got up early and mowed the lawn (my front yard is no longer a jungle for my cat to hide in), then ran some errands. Once I got home, I finished watching Secret Invasion and watched all of Good Omens with dragonydreams.

Y'all if you loved Season 1 of Good Omens, tell EVERYONE to watch it (and season 2) this month. Well, from now until August 29. The viewing of this month is going to be what Amazon uses to decide if we get a Season 3. We might not know until after the strike though.

In addition to all that I finished my Patreon story for July and scheduled it for release on the 31st. I have August almost done so I'm excited about that. I wrote 1,073 words for the day which puts me almost at 11K for the month.

itsanonyx, it's over to you to close out our weekend.

This was supposed to be posted at 1_million_words... ooops

Fandom Gift Basket

I've decided this year to participate in fandomgiftbasket since two of my friends are also doing it. At the moment I'm only planning to create fills for the two of them, but if anyone else is doing it and wants me to look, please let me know.

Here's my requests! Have a good day.

*puts mask on* *waves*

I had grand plans for this weekend for writing and starting to get back into the swing... these did not happen. I'm sick... not COVID, but sick (might end up going to Urgent Care again sick). Just went ahead and booked my appointment for tomorrow.

Anyway, didn't get any story words done, but I got 1,048 on other things (filling in my update for Inkingitout and answering Hot Seat questions).

And now I'm off to bed.
