    Hey all,

     

    I hope this doesn't come off as me showing off my feathers, but I noticed that there aren't any comments on my latest entries. Again, not to blow my own trumpet but feedback from you wonderful people really is my creativity fuel. :)

    Yes, your comment annihilated what was left. :P People are trying to figure out how to recover from seeing your awesomeness.

     I guess.

    Well as for awesomeness.... 

    I failed this weeks word count.

    My goal for week 59 of my 60 week countdown was 12,824. I only achieved 11,356.  So being Sunday I now start week 58.

    Word goal for week: 12,845  Daily Word goal: 1835

    As I failed last week the word count has risen. It's the only way I can have my task completed by 20th Dec 2017.

    Slinks off to the straw corner snarling as he plods along....

    And it's another Sunday and another word count.

    This week I slaughtered my word count goal. 

    My Goal for Week 58 of my 60 week countdown was 12,845. I achieved 21,463 words.

     

    Now it starts all over again. 

    Word Goal for week 57 is  12,698  Daily Word Goal; 1814

    At least it's going in the right direction. I made up for last weeks shortfall and then some.

    I only really need to write one more chapter of Crossover and then it's done, but I can't bring myself to get around to writing it - every time I think "I'll write it now, I have time" I just open the word document and think "Or I could just watch YouTube..."

    Aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    Some day...

    All you need to do Will is write one word. Just the one word. Once you've done that, all you need to do is write one word. Just the one. After that; write one word.

    It sounds daft but I find this approach useful to get over a writing slump. I just can't afford any more slumps and on the days where I don't want to write this works well. It gon't take long to get into what you're writing.

    Thanks, Sotek, I started planning it after I posted the comment - tomorrow, I will write one word and hopefully, it'll go on from there :)
