Writing A 1,000 Page Novel: New Month...New Goals

 October 1, 2023

I finished strong in September...I wrote 170 pages in the month of September.....That is a record for me....Now it is October...Days getting shorter....weather cooling...and chickens are happy and going in the coop earlier.....So I need new goals to keep me on the right track......

I ordered 2 writing books that should arrive today...

Writing and World Building...Volume 1 and 2 by Timothy Hickson.....found him on Youtube and ordered on Amazon....On Youtube he has alot of videos.....I don't want to watch all of them....so I ordered thea books...His books got good reviews.....Not endorsing him.....just telling you what I bought and why.

I need help with my Worldbuilding......I will let you know whether the. books are helpful or not....excited to get them..

Goals for October....

I would like to write 10 pages a day....I know that is unrealistic...what if it is possible.

On my novel....I am on page 307....only 693 pagesto write.....

7X90=630

If I write 7 pages a day, everyday....that would be 630 pages....short 63 pages.....some days I would write more

New Goal For October:  Write 7 or more pages everyday

Read the 2 Writing Books .....Work On My Worldbuilding

I see the finished novel.....by January 1st 2024

That is my goal

What is your goal for the month of October and/or The rest of the year???

One word at a time....

I try to write everyday, but it does not always work out that way for me. I guess what I am trying to say, it that don't feel bad if you don't write for one day.  You are still a writer.
