Impossible Goals?

Posted on | June 27, 2009 | 1 Comment

I’ve set plenty of them, failed at most, but achieved a couple. It’s been a while though, since I set myself something so truly monumental, so utterly ridiculous my girlfriend will once again consider calling the men in the white coats.

So here it is. First, finish the first five chapters of The Shadow Library by the end of the month. Where I am that’s another three days. Unlikely at best.

Step two? Finish another 50,000 words and hopefully the novel in the month of July, my own premature nanowrimo. Why not wait until November when nanowrimo is in full swing anyway? Partly because I’d like to do nanowrimo as its own project, and because I’m horrifically impatient (a bad combination with procrastination) and want to get the story in my head onto paper.

In my favor is my high caffeine tolerance, a good story plan and an understanding (if dubious) girlfriend.

I’ll keep you posted.

    Well, It’s been a good day for impossible goals not being so impossible. Wrote 3000 words, some of them even in the right order.
