I struggled with whether or not I wanted to participate this round. It didn’t go so well for me in the last one. I mean, I perhaps got onto the right path with my novel, but I didn’t get far into the edits. Not as far as I would’ve liked to have at any rate. But I realized I didn’t really set proper goals to attain. They weren’t manageable.
During the break, I took a look at the plan I made during school. It was the plan for spending my time as a writer once school was done. The problem with it is that I don’t have the amount of time I thought I might. Maybe I will once my bathroom is done, but I’m living in the present.
Anyway, the plan was useful in that it gave me an idea. I also looked at the schedule we used to use for how many pages to write for a screenplay each week to get a first draft done in a semester. We did 6-10 pages each week, but had other assignments. I wasn’t working during school, so that amount is too much right now. But it helped me develop some targets.
