October’s Challenges (by sarah)
Septembers challenges went well - I haven't finished the novel but am almost there! And am hoping it wont eat too far into the month though I have realised I want to rewrite huge chunks of it :/
Blog post wise I did well over 100 posts over my various blogs and finally sorted out a writing home page and got my head around a few of my on going projects!
And so there is October - and the main question is do I do GothNoWriMo?
I still have the novel from last month to finish :/ and have another project I really really want to complete. This project is The Little Book of Spoogy Poetry and mainly involves sorting out illustrations and the like.
What I am thinking of doing is saying the novel has priority though I still don't want to push at more than 1000 words a day. It is so almost there I don't think it needs it either - then once that is done I shall re-write it, spending an hour on it a day.
I will spend an hour on the Little Book too which should get me a good long way through it and hopefully produce at least a finished book for Jean by the end.
Then if I feel upto it I may well do 1000 words for GothNoWriMo but this will only be on week days as It can only really happen whilst my little girl is at school - this leads me onto another issue with my challenges this month. There is a half term holiday so I will be loosing a weeks worth of writing time which hopefully I will be able to catch up during the rest of the month.
I am also aware that this is basically 3 challenges - GothNoWriMo is taking low priority but hopefully something will get written for it! It may even get it's own monster blog - we will see 🙂
Again wish me luck.
