smallhobbitHow are my goals going? (In case anyone is confused I set my yearly goals in April, so October is half way).
Goal No 1 - Write all the things
Word count to the end of September was 127,590, which is above where I need to be to reach my annual target for the year (this is a calendar year goal).![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
fan_flashworks has introduced some new badges, and I decided to do some work on finishing those I'd already started, so that all helped. I'm also working on two case fics for story_works which is bumping the total up.
There's all my usual challenges, plusspook_me of course. In addition I'm writing for Multifandom Trope fest, plus a few Harry Potter exchanges, which is something I've not done before. And today, despite saying I wasn't going to do so, I've signed up for Yuletide - there were sufficient fandoms nominated to appeal.
Goal No 2 - Continue with the art and craft work
I finished my cross stitch at the end of last month, and have done very little since - a couple of quick drawings - I shall post a bit more later this week. I decided it was sensible to take a break from sewing for a few weeks, but haven't really replaced it with anything.
Goal No 3 - Do something new each month
In August I visited new places in London, and last month was sci-fi/scientific books. This month's post will be done at the end of this week.
So overall everything is going well. I'm not really satisfied with the art and craft side, but I am planning on taking my sketch book when we go to Vienna, so hopefully I will do some drawing then.
