I got my real start in writing with NaNoWriMo and that has shaped a lot of my experience since then. Word goals seem to work really well for me.

But even so I go through different moods. Sometimes the words just aren't flowing and I regroup and try to figure out what's holding me back rather than forcing it. Other times it's going well and the word count goals help me push myself and get more done. The sense of accomplishment that comes with finishing another thousand words helps give me the motivation to write another.

Right now I'm coming off one of those stages where I've been doing mostly planning so I'm going to start setting goals for myself again. I'm thinking I'll start with a thousand a day since that's usually easy for me and see how that feels and I'll increase it depending on how that goes.
