HI, INTERNETS, I AM BACK!!! I have been too caught up in holiday drinking festivities to get online for like the past week. I was starting to get all twitchy as a result.

I hope everyone had a fantastic holiday/weekend/whatever!! I had a wonderful (if exhausting) Christmas and now I am all ready to do end-of-year memes and make impossible resolutions I have no hope of keeping. GOOD TIMES!!

The first of which is a writing one. I went through and did a rough add-up of my word counts of all the stories I posted for the year (at least the stuff I put up at [livejournal.com profile] storiesimakeup) and I wrote around 140k this year. That was without having any real writing goals set for the year (aside from participating in [livejournal.com profile] spn_j2_bigbang). Considering I also moved across the country this year, I'm counting that as decent output.

So I'm thinking of doing [livejournal.com profile] getyourwordsout this year, but I'm unsure of what sort of goal I ought to set for myself. My writing for the year still falls under their "Modest Level" (150k), but as I plan on focusing much more on writing this year, I'm thinking of doing the 200k? Or 250k? Writing for nearly the whole month of December, I ended up with around 20k, and certainly not all of that was brilliant, so maybe I'd better stick with the 200k. HMMM.

Ahahaha, oh, my fascinating ponderings!! Alas, I do not have time to redeem this entry right now, as I have to go out and shovel snow before it gets completely dark. I hope that those of you also buried in snow are staying warm and safe. ♥!!!

Right? It seems like it could be fun/motivational!! I think I do okay with that sort of deadline. I guess we'll see!

Yes, you should do it! I did it this past year and, though I missed making my goal, it was still fun to do. I'm going to do it next year with a more modest goal of 200k. WE COULD DO IT TOGETHER. Because, you know, it's not like we're totally co-dependent or anything.

DO IT.

CO-DEPENDENCE WORKS WELL FOR US! Let's not question the system at this point...

As you wish! ;D
