This month I participated in the rough draft challenge, that Sarra Cannon had started. This is a wonderful idea since leaving behind Nano is a challenge in its self. I am working almost full time at the moment. New career and working days and hours is a change, but working on budgeting my time.
In November 50k is the usual word count for this goal. This year I wanted to do something different and so happy I did this. Proud that the 12k I did write are all new fresh words, ideas, places. I have made my self a sprinting spread sheet on Google, where I track how much I write either it be brain storming or story writing it is all tracked and add up at the end of the day.
25mins of writing and a 5 min break. I have learnt, if I know what I am working on and just let it flow I can write 657 words in 25mins. Learning this about myself is interesting. Now I can take this, break it up in time and space in my weekdays and weekends. Also learning it takes about two months for me to write and finish the first rough draft, but that is just fine.
