Work schedule

So I think I've gotten a work schedule cut out for myself: write longhand during the week, take the weekend to type everything up, and then start over again on Monday. Weekends will also be for fleshing out the bits my hands were too tired to write properly. This is good: it encourages letting bits of story sit for awhile so I can go back to them later, with my head fresher for editing. It also means I only get a new word count at the end of the week, which gives me room for goals, which is good because I am the least motivated writer ever. I'm pretty sure that when you are a writer, or even an author, you're not supposed to be content to keep the story in your head.
Tonight I think I'll do some other stuff I've been meaning to do but kept avoiding, and we'll start the new work schedule on Monday. Because in May I'll have been writing this thing for a YEAR. Bleh.

Also, I freaking LOVE Neopets. Make fun of me all you please, but I love it so much. I have three accounts (you're allowed five) and my pets are all customized and pretty and I love it. I'm also a neo-millionaire, I have ten million neopoints. SO much fun.

I love Neopets too.
I'm not on as often I used to be, and I'm not a neo-millionaire (yet), but I still peruse the site when I remember.
My friends make fun of me, so I'm really secretive about it. Any time one of my friends walks into the room, I always quickly exit out of the page =[
