It’s hard to get any consistency about my schedule these days, but the words are flowing. I’ve made it easy on myself with my daily goal: I’m only asking myself for 500 words daily, 5 days a week.
But surprise surprise, I’m finding that the “goal” is more like a “limitation”. Just this week, I’ve done:
(Mon – 475 words)
(Tue – 537 words)
(Wed – 570 words)
(Thur – 623 words)
And that’s not trying to write more, that’s just writing where the writing takes me and stopping once I find a decent stopping point. Problem is, it’s getting harder to find good stopping points, because I’m enjoying myself so much.
But these are good problems to have.
Holy crap it’s so far past my bedtime.
Good job keeping up with your goal! My goal was to write 1000 words a day. So far I have written nothing. I think I need to start my goal at 500 until I get back into the swing of things.

I’m capable of 1000/day, but the summer is so weird that I give myself a little bit of a break. A goal that’s reachable is a must.

My problem is just sitting down and writing something. All the ideas are just floating around in my head, I am just too lazy or busy to write them down. lol

Awesome work. I try to pound out 500 a day as well. Sometimes inspiration comes around and I have heavier days too. Sometimes the opposite. Consistency is key!

I’m a 500-a-day-er who overshoots every time. I’ve developed a compulsive need to not stop writing until I have at least 500. Anything below just feels wrong on so many levels…
Writing is a dangerous thing

Yeah, 500 is a nice round number that’s pretty easy to reach but that usually leaves me wanting a bit more. It’s working for now!
