Write Away

I need to get back into the wordcount-per-day groove, because that works really well for me. Right now I'm just doing a write-five-stories goal, which is fine, but not having the wordcount goal has me staring at the screen and going "uhhh" more often than just opening Write or Die and cranking out the words. I can edit words that suck; I can't edit a blank screen.

Last year, I had a wordcount goal, and attempted two NaNo short-story projects--one of which succeeded wildly and one of which failed by about 10K words, but I still wrote five stories, so I considered it a win. Last year, I completed sixteen stories; this year I've just got a "write a bunch of stories" goal, so we shall see what happens.
