Now that I've started writing the first draft of the first Meowsie novel, I've decided to give myself a daily goal to work towards. It will help me focus and make sure I get the book done in a reasonable amount of time.
I currently have a month's vacation and nothing to do in that time so I played with the possibility of writing the whole novel in that time - like my own personal NaNoWriMo. But I figured, If I set my goal at 1,000 words, I will only have around a 25k book at the end of the month, which isn't very long. So I'll either have to write more or write past a month.
So, for now I'm setting my goal at 1,000 words and I may make that higher if I fell I am ready for it.
I would certainly advise other authors out there to use a goal-system like this.
