Starting out

Quick and dirty: I'm into this two weeks after the challenge started. The challenge? Set my own measurable goals on what I can do in my writing adventure in 80 days -- okay, now 64 days.

Goal 1: write at least 10 minutes a day. One step in achieving the goal is to start the minute hubby takes an evening nap. Otherwise his interruptions will get me off track from having direct, devoted, diehard writing time.

Goal 2: check in twice a week as directed.

Goal 3: don't worry about "pretty." I have an outline, I need to do some detailed research in some areas, but I need to get back to putting meat on the bones and voices in the characters.
