Day 4 – MandoWriMo
I’ve just completed the first four days of my August 60k in 30 days goal. Yeah, I know how many days August has. 62k in 31 days doesn’t sound right, though. It gives me a day to rest…
Anyway, I’ve listed the 7 projects to complete on my dry erase board for the month and so far so good… I should be 8k into the writing and I’m already breaking 10k in the four days. Not too shabby, especially when you consider I lost all of Saturday to a birthday party and then watching a 10 Things You Didn’t Know About… marathon starring Henry Rollins. Still love this guy.
But I feel really good. I’ve been jumping from project to project and knocking down the words needed each day. A couple of the shorter ones will be done in the next day or so, and then I can work more on the longer pieces. I’m writing in whichever one I want, and not adding anything else to the pile right now.
I’ll keep you posted… and keep myself writing.

Way to go man. I’m sure you can meet those goals. I need to get working on the Crystal Lake zombie thing in the coming days.

One of the things I’m working on this month. About 4,000 words into it so far.

Keep it up, Armand. I’d have a very difficult time hitting that goal.

Thanks. And have faith in yourself… and then hit the goal you set. Easy, right?

It’s not faith that I lack. It’s time. I usually only end up with somewhere between one and two hours at the end of the day to write. I do need to get back into the habit of setting goals though. Lately I’ve just been drifting and bouncing between too many projects with no real direction. Some more focused goals would be helpful, I think.

Agreed, it definitely helps me to focus. Good luck!
