My goal for February is somewhat ambiguous but I think it will work for me:
WRITE.
Every day.
I don't care how MUCH or how LONG or ON WHAT.
But I must do some fiction writing every day.
..........
What about you? What goals do YOU have for this month? Let me know so I can add them to the sidebar.

I love your new goal. All that matters is that it'll work for you, and if this is it I think it's perfect! I know you can accomplish February's goal.
Me? On the first I began the third book in a series I'm writing. I'm woefully behind where I'd like to be but I've got about a third of the book done. It's called Change of Heart and my goal is to have the first draft written by the end of February.
I must be nuts. Starting tomorrow, we'll have two weeks of appointments. I see many early mornings in my future but if all goes well I should have book three in the bag by the twenty-eighth. Fingers crossed!
Good luck with your daily writing goal. I know you can do it. I'll be back to check in about fourteen days! :)
That's the same conclusion I came to. Write. Every day. No drama. Just sit down and do it, even if all I get is twenty minutes or so.
It adds up. You'll be surprised.
That's an excellent goal and, like Sarita said, all that really matters!
Let's be realistic (*snort*); my goal by the end of February is 2 YA chapters, 2 blog entries a week and 1 amazing poem/song. The poem is rumbling and tumbling now, so it shouldn't be long in appearing. I'm hoping I can use it in Linear Equation. My dream with that novel is to actually record a cd of music to accompany it.
This, from someone who can't keep her blog up.
(But I ain't giving up!)
I may be a bit late in commenting on this post but your goal is really very interesting.I am a kind of person who has major difficulties in finishing things after starting them, and reading this post I think it would do me a world of good to follow your lead here....setting up goals is really a very useful thing to do!!!! All the best with your writing
