2 Months Left To Write in 2020: Goals

 10/21/20

Words Written: 3,000

Goal:  125,000 Words

Deadline: December 31, 2020

Words Left To Write:  87,933 Words To Go!

I wrote 3,000 words in one sitting.  I knew I had things to do in the afternoon, so I wrote 3,000 words and called it a day.

I have the Rough Draft of Book 1 finished.  It is a very rough draft.  But it is finished enough that I can start making major changes in the book. 

I can write Rough Drafts with no problem.  Because I am just letting the words flow.  Not thinking, not editing and not caring.  I just let the Characters talk.  Kinda like journaling .  I just write.

Now I have a Rough Draft, I am going to have to make changes, add more detail and make the story readable.  This is where the work comes in.  

Anyone can write a Rough Draft.

A Writer makes the Rough Draft into a Readable Book

My goal is still to write 125,000 words by December 31, 2020 so I still have to write at least 3,000 words a day, if I want to publish my 4 Book Series in 2021.

There is only 2 more months left of 2020.

My goal is to write 125,000 words.

I am going to start Book 2 of the series, If I can get a rough draft of that Book done in November, I will be able to work on Book3, in December.  I then would have 3 Rough Draft Books, that I can start rewriting in 2021.  Then I will have something to work on and focus on.

Writing When Sick

I didn't feel good the last two days.  I slept a lot, but I was still thinking about my writing.  I did sit on the couch with my laptop and did some writing, though that I know that I need to do rewrite, but I did write.  Today I feel better and hopefully I will get more pages into the computer.  I started the rewrite of a novel that has been rejected 20 times and I will get it back on the market. So that I it.  I am going to start writing and get this done. What are you working on??? This is a new year.....New Beginning.

Don't Be Scammed

This is my number one pet peeve on being self published.  There are people, website, and courses out there, that want your money. THINK BEFORE YOU SPEND! There are websites out there that will charge you for services that you can learn to do yourself.  If you don't want to learn these things that is fine, pay for it.  But if the reason that you are paying for services is because you don't t think you can, you are totally wrong. I have said this before and I am saying it again.  I knew nothing when I started in 2011,  I had a computer.  I had no idea how to send a file via e-mail. I had no idea what to do one I got the file back from the formatter.  How do I get it uploaded on Amazon.  I had no idea that I had more than one drive on the computer.  I downloaded a file and had no idea where it went. If you are thinking that you can not learn this.  I am proof you can learn if you set your mind to it and are willing to learn. Don't...
