That's a wrap on Draftober

Check Out How I Did

I’m not going to lie, this goal was loftier than I expected. My daughter has been sick, pretty much this entire month. I’m not feeling great today either and I honestly wasn’t sure if it was going to happen. My husband is going in for ACL surgery next week. I’ve been feeling really stressed and a bit down.

But I did it. I accomplished my goal of writing 30,000 words in the month of October. There are lots of things I did not accomplish this month that I wanted to. I didn’t run the 10k I planned. We didn’t get to go on the Halloween train. (Not going to lie, I cried about that). I’ve had to reschedule things.

It’s been a tough month. It feels good that I did this one thing and that I’ve had a delightful story to escape to when everything else has felt like a lot.

To keep up the momentum, my writing goal for November is to finish this draft! What are your writing goals this month?
