 It's that time of year again. Last year, I set a goal of writing 200k words for the year and revising one page per day. I totally rocked the word count (366k!) but didn't do nearly as well with the revision.

All in all, I'm happy with my productivity in 2021 so I'll keep my goals simple and easy. Rather than a page of revision a day, I'll instead aim for ten works to be revised and posted. Hopefully that's something I can succeed at.

Good luck to everyone with their writing goals this year!

 It's the start of a new year and I thought I should set some writing goals for myself.

I prefer to set my goals on the low side and then exceed them, rather than to set them high and fail. It's better for my mental health, and a year is a long time.

So. My goal for the year is to produce 200k words of rough draft, whether that's fanfiction or original, and to edit at least one page per day.

That last one is particularly low because I'm trying to encourage myself to finally work through the edits on a story that I love, but that was written before I had a handle on writing mechanics. I figure that if I do a page a day, I'll get through more of it than I did last year. Here's hoping. I'm going to start today, anyway.

Best wishes for everyone this year!

Claire
