So...in the efforts to motivate myself, I'm issuing a challenge. My critique partner (Cyn), and I, are going to be writing 2500 words each week. It's a doable goal. If I focus, i can do it one sitting. I guess that's why It's high enough to make a dent, but low enough that if I procrastinate too badly, I can still make myself do it at the last minute. The next book I write might be crap, but it will be written, dammit.
So anyways, I am issuing a challenge to anyone else who is in a slump, or just procrastinating. Every monday, i will post, asking for progress. Anyone can "join". You can post this same challenge on your own LJ. Adjust it as you want.
Who's up for the challenge?
