It's a goal

I work with goals. Maybe it's my business training that makes me want to organise myself in a rigid manner, and partake in goal setting, but I think there's more to it than that. When you have many different projects on the go, planning becomes essential.

I've come to a halt with the nano project I've been working on, and I'm a little behind actual wordcount, but it can't be ALL about the wordcount, although getting to 50000 is fun, exciting and utterly exhausting. I also have another goal with this nano. I want to be able to produce work that is worthy of taking further, i.e., crafting, shaping and editing after all the faff of national novel writing month.

There are two short stories to write before the end of November, and these absolutely need to be in tip-top condition, so my writing schedule is pretty hectic to say the least, and I'm not even counting the business writing that's been on the back-burner for a very long time.

These are my goals for today:

1. To write roughly between 5000 and 8000 words
2. To work on my scy-fi story, currently about halfway through. 
3. To plan some more on a short story.

Better get scribbling then.
