Wow, okay.

Weekly challenge accepted.
Personal goal: Write 300 words every day this week.

Just a personal habit; I set goals like that at the 3, 4, or 5 days in a week. That way if something comes up I'm not stressing; there's a margin for those unexpected alien invasions and dress shopping for the coronation that all too often arise.

True, though I'm not likely to have a coronation any time soon (I tend to prefer racing through the forest and dressing in garb to help me blend into it rather than attend those crowded gatherings and wear those cumbersome things) and alien invasions? I'm sure there are three hundred words somewhere that could describe that - if I can write, dodge, and survive at the same time.

Stressing helps me actually get words on the page - I think. If I have to make a gap, I will take your advice and break that writer's rule in my head that I can't.

(That, and I wasn't counting Sunday in my 'every day' since this only goes from Monday to Saturday now, and Sunday is my day off [at least, I really try for it to be])

Personal Goal: Send two chapters to Alpha. Outline characters for The Witch's Grandchildren.
