We’re about halfway into the month, and I wanted to give a quick update on how my September Goals are coming (or not coming) along. Let’s just say that while I’ve made progress, I’m not exactly happy with it.
Here’s my list of goals for the month:
- Reach 50k on my first draft
- Write short story #3
- Write short story #4
- Write short story #5
- Finish the freelance project I’m working on
At quick glance, that looks alright, yes? I finished one of my short stories, and I finished that big freelance project. And what that doesn’t show is that I also finished a second small freelance project this month and have started a third. So yay on that!
But progress on my first draft has drizzled along. According to my calendar, I should be at about 25k right now. But no. I am not. Instead, I am just past 10k. *shakes head at self* That means I’m 15k behind, and I just don’t think I can catch up on that.

I guess we’ll see. In the past, I’ve had a few really high word count days now and again, and if I had just a couple of those, I could actually catch up fairly quickly.
Hope everyone else is having a productive month!
