Do you think you can make the 50 000?

Easily! Should be no trouble. [ 0 ] ** [0.00%]
Maybe. But I'm going to work hard so that I do. [ 9 ] ** [60.00%]
I probably could, but I don't want to push myself, so I'm aiming for more like 30 or 40. [ 3 ] ** [20.00%]
No way - I just want to give it a go, and see how much I can do. [ 3 ] ** [20.00%]

What do you reckon? smile.gif

I reckon that ordinarily, I could do it okay. But seeing as this year's my GCSE year, I've got to put more effort into that, and will have less time to do it. Although, I did find out today that I have a handy day off on the 28th November... my instant thought was "ooh, I can do a day's writing!" XD

But anyways. I don't know if I will be able to do it, considering those circumstances, so although I am ultimately aiming and hoping to reach the 50, I'd still be damned proud if I reached 30 or 40. smile.gif

You know, I think sadistic authors have it easiest. It's us bleeding-hearts that have problems with plots.

If we were willing to have something awful happen to our characters, everything would be soo much simpler. Have chars plus environment? Okay, then... have one of them die. Have someone betray their friends. Make the world come to an end. Put them all in a life-threatening situation. Mix all those together and put them in THAT situation.

Actually, that sounds like fun. devil.gif
