smallhobbitIs it really over three months since I set my new goals? Who stole quarter of the year? Definitely time for a review.
Goal No 1 - Carry on writing all the things. Looking at my wordage goals, this is another month when I've written less than 10,000 words, although I'm over 70K for the year. On the plus side, with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
watsons_woes JWP I've written most days, just my daily output isn't high. I've gained 5 more badges for fan_flashworks bringing the total up to 38, including the gold Yule Goat, for a total of 15 small fandoms (all of which I wouldn't have written a year ago). I can't say I'm particularly inspired to write anything at the moment, part of me thinks I need a new challenge, the other part says I have a number of things I could be writing in the back of my diary, so maybe I should do something about them.
Goal No 2 - Read more and more widely. Now there I am doing well. My second book review should be up in the next few days. And even more importantly, I'm enjoying it.
Goal No 3 - Moar theatre. Another triumph. No further comment needed I feel.
All of which shows the importance of setting reasonable goals. And possibly having a bit more structure for my writing come the autumn. I'm not entirely satisfied with how its going at the moment, which probably means the goals I've set weren't quite right. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy with what I'm doing, and I'm writing something most days, it's just I feel there's something slightly missing. Maybe some sort of monthly challenge? Thoughts from you lot much appreciated.
