Ravenousravishing's Chatter & Writing

Hooray, I've joined a yearlong writing challenge!

Get Your Words Out [GYWO] is in it’s 17^th year, apparently. It’s a year long writing challenge with several pledge levels, and I’ve signed up :D

I’ll be attempting a habit pledge of having 120 writing sessions in the year. I’ve already had an ongoing goal of writing once a week, so this is adding about a second day onto my goal.

I’m quite nervous about making a solid goal for the year. It’s one thing to say “I want to write once a week”. It’s another thing to say “I’m going to try and write all year”.

Part of meeting this goal is possibly going to include looking at what I’ve been working on. Not with the goal of forcing myself to dedicate my time to only one project—I’d just rebel and panic—but to get a better idea of where my attention has been at and understand the scope. I have a nasty habit of dedicating myself to a lot of things at once and then treating myself as if I’m not doing ‘enough’, when the reality is I’ve got a lot of creative things happening alongside
life.
