Goals What are your Goals for the Last Few Days of August and September, 2022?

[Sunny Irene Roth]

Hi Ladies!

Wowza!! Just like that, the summer is almost over.

If you struggled to get some of your writing goals crossed off this month, you still have three days to complete your goals. Even if you don't finish your complete goal, make it a point to finish up one small part of that goal. You can do it! Just be realistic about how much you can do, and set a goal, write it down, make an intention to complete the small goal, and that's it.

So, what are your goals for this week?

And while you're at it, start looking at your long term writing goals and what you'd like to complete in the last 4 months of the year.
When you know which goals you will complete in September, please post them under this thread, along with this week's goals.

All the best as we wrap up the end of August!

I plan to:

• write a first draft of a mystery story.
• conduct research for another mystery story.
• focus on doing one thing at a time - easier said than done!

Hi,

I have blocked out time in my schedule for writing.

Tuesday 6am - 8am CST, 11am - 1pm CST - I am going to finish editing the last few scenes that are fully written in my MS - After that I only have bits and pieces and can sit down and write, which I prefer to editing.

Wednesday 6am - 10am CST - I have about 4 scenes to get through this week and I imagine I will still be editing and reworking them.

Thursday 6am - 10am CST - Continue to edit and move forward in the ms I have so I can write NEW scenes.

Friday 6am - 8am CST - Edit and write. I have trouble concentrating on Fridays because I have something to do for work at 8am.

Saturday 6am - 10am CST - I believe I'll be all out of editing and can write new scenes. This will take me past the point where my story petered out last time and it will make me really happy to get to this point.

I hope everyone has a great week.
