Writing pledges for December
This feels a bit like making New Year (post-NaNoWriMo) resolutions, but anyway…
State your writing-related goal for December!
Do you want to finish or edit your NaNoWriMo novel, do you want to start on something else, do you just want to make yourself write every day? Comment here.

Ok, my own fairly ambitious goals for December are:
Sunday 2nd December 2007 at 12:27 pm- to finish the damn NaNoWriMo novel by writing on average 1000 words a day; not because I want to do anything with it any time soon, but because I want to actually finish a novel for once.
- to write at least two short stories for a competition I want to enter.
I want to finish this NaNo novel this month for a competition I have my eyes on;
I’m also working on a half-hour radio drama that I want to finish in December and I hope finds a home this year;
My New Year’s resolution (the year starting with NaNoWriMo of course) is to submit at least one story/article/filler each week. On schedule so far.
And I have an idea for a Christmas short story, which I hope to write early in December before I’m SICK of the holidays.
Sunday 2nd December 2007 at 2:31 pm- Finish NaNo, edit it for spelling, continuity, and Big Stupid Things I caught mid-November. Print a dozen copies in time for the people who asked for the holidays. Then, table it until March.
- doodle ideas for the two short story ideas I had during Nano. Maybe write one of them, who knows?
- revive my flagging RP characters. I missed them.
Sunday 2nd December 2007 at 5:31 pmI posted on the novel critique exchange board on NaNoWriMo, somebody contacted me about reading my novel for me. I sent it to them a couple of minutes ago, I’m very nervous, first time for something like that…Anyway, I’m hoping that with their help, I’ll redo the missing chapter and finally finish the novel, edit it too and clear up any…wierd bits. I’m not expecting a good novel out of it, I just want to finish something for the first time ever!
Sunday 2nd December 2007 at 5:40 pmI’d like to finish editing my novel and get the rewrite done and then out to some test readers
Monday 3rd December 2007 at 7:51 amWell, I’m just going to leave my novel for December and concentrate on school assignments. I’ll also jot down some ideas here and there, rework on plot and characters, do some sketches to get a better idea of the chars, settings and all and maybe do some research.
I’ll resume writing on January, hopefully.
