For me at the moment, long-term plans are a bit of a contradiction in terms.
My son is out of the hospital now and in a physical and cognitive rehab facility in the Des Moines area. I wanted to check up on him through the week, so I decided to stay at his apartment through the week to keep him company.
How long that’s going to last is up in the air. By the time this posts, we may have heard he will be headed home in a few days or a week. Then I might be in another place altogether.
This has not necessarily been good for my writing consistency. It sort of bites, actually:
Writing statistics for the week ending 23 March 2024:
2,782 words written.
Days writing: 4 of 7.
Days revising/planning: 1 of 7 for 30 total minutes.
Daily Writing Goals Met (500+ words or 30 minutes of planning/revisions): 4 of 7 days.
At this point in my writing development, anything less than 3,000 words a week is an unacceptable week, and anything above 4,000 is minimally acceptable. I think I have a chance to make this month be a bigger turnaround for me as far as productivity goes, but it’s not guaranteed. The (electronic) page awaits.
