I actually tried to set myself up for failure the other day, set another one of my winner, unrealistic goals [cause I just want to finish yesterday] but then the rest of my projects would have suffered. I backed off, found my way back to zen and came up with a goal for my novella that I can live with...
Goals for this weekend:
- Revision: Caught up through Monday. Nothing due until Tuesday [DONE]
- 'Novella' (10k): Nothing due until next Sat. [DONE]
- Short story collection (2500 words/each): 1 story due tomorrow. Mostly I need to try and add more hook to the story I already wrote. (Next one won't be due for 2 weeks) [DONE]
- WIP (60K): ~3 scenes (due today, Sunday, Weds) [DONE]
Tonight I'm going to try and get the revision completed on my short story. This will free up my weekend to get ahead on my WIP. Maybe I can even fit in some revision on Sunday.
I love my schedule- so much flexibility and freedom. Juggling my priorities is incredibly motivating, especially now that I've found a way to fit all 4 projects in at the same time (with reasonable deadlines).
