Weekly Goals

Nanowrimo began this week. I am an ML for Nano and have been busy with launch parties and participated in a "Midnight Oil" write-in that began at the stroke of midnight to kick-off the writing.

This week, I am focusing on writing scenes from Book III of my steampunk series. Here and there are scenes that I meant to write and did not, or new scenes that I dreamed up and never got around to. I also need to finish the ending! So far, I've put in around 4K toward this goal during Nano. This means that I'm a bit behind in word count, but I will write a little every day until I catch my steam.

I am taking an online course called "Surviving On Mars" which is teaching me the science behind what it will take to live on the Red Planet. It is sparking my creativity and giving me new ideas for expanding my martian adventure "Dancing Queen". I still need a solid outline for this project, but as the class continues an outline will come together. I plan to work on this starting sometime in week two of Nano.

Between the two projects, I should easily reach 50K of words and perhaps a few more.
