Hoo boy.
I just read the email about this SWAGr thing today, and feel I can do at least 7 hours. So, 20 minutes per day for the rest of the month will accomplish this goal. I may also choose to write for a couple of hours on the weekend to insure I meet the goal when my day job is more demanding.
I’m actually inclined to being very private about my writing life, but I feel it heightens my accountability to reach out and I need to cultivate serious writing habits. Writing makes me happy.
Last month: I wrote and performed 2 acts of a play – “Adventures into the unimaginable” I completed reading a book on memoir writing. Still working on reading “Story Genius”. I took OFF my list – update my LinkedIn profile.
JUNE:
Complete edit of Act 2.
Get a draft of Act 3 completed.
Read and take notes on a memoir book by Karr.
Cheers to a great writing month everyone!
My Goal for the month of June is to, finish prepping three story projects for Nano Camp July 2022.
Last month, I completed the first draft of a story. This month I will create and follow a reading plan and read like a writer.
