Last week I signed up for ROW80 so of course my world got all crazy and I got nothing done. So this Sunday I’m here to list my goals for the week.
1- writing 1000 words per day. I can work on my WIP or write blogs, but no internet until I’ve written 1000 words.
2- I will write a first lesson for a Create Diversity in Your Writing class I’ve been thinking of organizing.
3- I will check out 3 review sites for submitting my book.
4- Send my next two chapters to my critique group.
5- Set up some more interviews or guest posts for my blog and for me to do.
I’m just starting with these as goals, if I do well I’ll add some more. 🙂
Yaaaaaaay, welcome aboard the ROW train! These goals all sound fantastic, and your promise not to go on the internet till you’ve written 1000 words is actually brilliant, and something I may need to adopt.
Have a great week!
Thanks Lena! If I don’t write first I get too distracted.
Good luck! I know I should try this, but I’m just too chicken. I’m so overwhelmed, the idea of adding one more thing to check is intimidating.
I understand being overwhelmed! Don’t add anything that makes life crazier!
Welcome to ROW80! Your goals seem right on and wow. No internet until your 1K writing goal is reached. What a brilliant thought. Wow. I bet that would be a habit changer for certain…. I look forward to getting to know you here… ROW80 is such a great community & I am glad you are now a part of it!
Thank you Julie I’ve been thinking of joining for a while, I’m glad I finally have.
1,000 words before other things…interesting goal, I likey!!
Welcome to the group!!
Thank you- when I make myself do it I actually get things done.
Hooray Alica!!!! Welcome to the ROW girl! I am so excited that you decided to join us! And what fantastic goals you’ve made. You are going to do great with this, I just know it! Thank you so much Alicia for coming by and supporting me and now it’s my turn to do the same for you! And congrats on your book too! I wish you all the best! Have a great week! 🙂
Thanks Karen! I’m so glad I joined. And thank you for the good wishes
WELCOME!!!! You have such awesome goals! Can’t wait to see how it goes. *hugs*
Thank you so much Dawn. I’m really looking forward to working with everyone.
Great goals and nudging the internet out of the picture until the writing is done is a great idea. I actually shut down all access and silence my phone while I write – bit of classical in the background – helps a lot.
All the best for the coming week, Alica 🙂
Thanks so much Gene- if I didn’t have kids I would turn the phone off, but I check to see who’s calling before I answer. And yes music is a must!
Hi Alica! Welcome to the ROW family. Good luck with your goals.
Thank you- so far so good LOL
I wish you well as you work on your goals, Alica. Here’s to productivity, creativity, and fun!
Thank you Keli!
Welcome to ROW80, Alica! Your goals look great, and very attainable…but when things get busy, my best advice is don’t be afraid to pull them back a bit! The beauty of ROW80 is the flexibility of the challenge, and when I’ve been insanely busy at my day job or just because of life, I’ve changed them to fit what I knew I could accomplish. 🙂
Best of luck to you, and I know you’ll do great!
Thanks Jessica! I’ve tried to keep my goals small enough to fit them into a crazy week- there are children every where so life always gets crazy!
Thrilled you’re joining us! Welcome, Alica. Your goals look great — specific and straightforward. We’ll definitely be here to cheer you on every step of the way!
Thanks so much Julie I can use some good cheering, and kick in the pants!
