So, I don't know if you've ever surfed around my old posts, but a while ago I submitted myself to what I call my 'progressive writing scheme'. Aim of the game: at least one sentence a day, every day. Then, when you've written (or rather I have written) one sentence, I write two the next day, three the day after, and so on and so forth. Originally I meant to double the previous day's offerings, but that was an illusionary aim, I'm sorry to say. This way is better.
Then, when I have no time for the right amount of sentences, I start over again.
And guess what: IT WORKED!
I have not made it past 20 sentences in proper order, but it has worked, and this has really given me a boost. I tend to over-plan my time, you see - aiming for things that I cannot possibly achieve. Well.
No more. Now I have my scheme. One sentence a day, that I can do, no matter what, no matter where, no matter when.
Hehe.

Hooray for achievable goals! It feels so good to meet a goal, even a small one. I'm still struggling with giving myself reasonable deadlines.
It does feel good, doesn't it? Hence the purposefully small goal of my progressive writing scheme... ; P
Congrats! Looks like you've found a pace and method that works for you. stick with it!
YAY! It must feel so fulfilling to have found something that works for you.
Cute blog!!
@ Saumya: Thanx! And yes, it's nice to have a system - strangely enough, without the pressure I seem to be averaging my original aim of about 500 words a day... ; )
