And it's done.

Draft 3.0 is done. It still sucks, but much much less than the first time around. Thank god.

Goal 1: I want to feel I have a novel publishable or accepted by 2010 Worldcon. No reason why not after all. 2010 is my magic year. By then I will know if I am serious about writing, and if I am I will have a better idea of my capabilities and strengths. I will be able to decide about Clarion or University, or even Honours/Postgrad stuff.

Specific Goals:

Jan - complete this draft of Book 1 (Ican Quintuplet)
Feb - go over edit of Nanowrimo novel. Period of growth and learning! Eep!
Mar - consider future options, uni, schooling, writing, editing, etc.

Apr - Re-evaluate next quarter and sort out goals and plans etc

How do I feel about the goals currently?
Good. Things are moving. I've stuck with finishing this draft even though it's much harder work than writing a whole new book. I've got the edited Nano novel ready to go, and some notes about my big issues for me to work on before I tackle it. I'm looking forward to February, hoping it will give me the big learning curve I have been seeking.

Goal 1: To maintain an average of 2k per workday, or 10K a week. I try and take weekends off. This is a baseline goal for me. I will often set myself mini goals of 4k, 5k, and even 7k a day.

Done. I am no longer in the novel producing phase. I am satisfied this goal is complete (for now.)

Goal 2: Finish this series and start editing before the end of year. I actually expect to have finished editing all five for a first draft by the end of this year, but this might not be realistic. Starting will be enough for me.

Done. I am over the block stopping me from editing book 1, and well into it after 2 days. Starting it is done, however I have a new goal to add after these ones.

Goal 3: I want to feel I have a novel publishable or accepted by 2010 Worldcon. No reason why not after all. 2010 is my magic year. By then I will know if I am serious about writing, and if I am I will have a better idea of my capabilities and strengths. I will be able to decide about Clarion or University, or even Honours/Postgrad stuff.

Goal 4: I will complete my erotica novel as a Nanowrimo novel this year. It will be 60Kish in length, and aimed for a specific erotica market. It will be finished (well, written) but the 30th of November.

Done! One erotica novel, currently with betas for critiquing. 52,000 words, book 2 and 3 already blooming in my head.
