During the summer you get so much time for writing every day - then college assignments start pouring in and it becomes difficult to find enough time to finish all your school essays, much less finish your WIP's.

I literally have about three or so chapters left to write in my fantasy WIP. Something got in to me yesterday and I wrote over 1,000 words (yes, I know that's usually for NaNoWriMo and probably other writers, but I usually write about 100 words and then I just simply can't think of anything else for the day) That was great :) I would love to get done with it today, or at least sometime this week. Writing down writing goals as homework will be helpful for me when I start the whole editing process :)Emilynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024721400572472213.post-33338931144713518102014-09-30T10:51:53.561-05:002014-09-30T10:51:53.561-05:00I am a Junior in college and usually have to treat...I am a Junior in college and usually have to treat my writing as homework too. Problem is, it doesn't work if I "assign" the work, which is why I am doing the 100 for 100 challenge. Having the knowledge that I am supposed to do this because I signed up saying I would is a lot more effective for me.Bookishqueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04815467506294547118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024721400572472213.post-18320690247656189122014-09-30T08:46:38.750-05:002014-09-30T08:46:38.750-05:00Thanks for your helpful suggestions-especially &qu...Thanks for your helpful suggestions-especially "Form your goals in advance" and "Set small, daily goals". I'm participating in GTW's 100-4-100 and I'm finding that I have more time to write than I thought I did. Having a daily word goal and recording your number of words, I've found, is a great way to stay motivated.<br /><br />Thanks again!Linea Marshallnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024721400572472213.post-73634920515617547962014-09-30T07:26:41.361-05:002014-09-30T07:26:41.361-05:00Hm, writing down my goals like actual homework see...Hm, writing down my goals like actual homework seems like it would work very well for me--that's what kind of kid I am.
