Now is the write time

Posted on Thursday, July 2nd, 2009 in writing Tags: , ,

Inkygirl is running a couple of challenges – 1000 words a day, or 500 words a day for those of us who aren’t quite as confident/determined/motivated.

Guess which category I fit in to?

Either way, I’m challenging myself to write 500 words a day towards my languishing novel. I’m going to include outline work and character sketches as well as actual content – they need to be done, and it’s all going to help. I hope.

I admit though that I’d planned to start yesterday, but I spent so long faffing around trying to fix the errormy commenters and I were getting when posting anything, and then trying to find a new progress meter plugin, that I didn’t get any writing done. Today should be a lot easier though.

Wish me luck? (Again.)

500 words a day

    Thanks so much for the heads up about Inkygirl’s challenges…I also have a languishing novel and this is just what I needed! :)

    It’s definitely good to try and get into some sort of routine. I haven’t managed to hit 500 words a day yet, even (which is pretty lame), but I have written something every day.

    Thanks for posting the link. I have been a follower of Debbie since she ran InkSpot. I hadn’t visited in a bit.
