Finish by Year’s End — Take the Poll

November 5, 2008 By Martha Alderson

On the wheel of life, this is both a time to reap the harvest of all we have accomplished for the year and also a time to reflect on whether we actually planted the seeds we intended and nurtured them to fruition.

If you started your writing project and finished — this is a time to celebrate!!

If you started and haven’t finished, it’s not too late.

Even if you haven’t started, it’s not too late.

You have until year’s end.

How many words, pages do you envision your completed project? Divide by the 58 days before the end of the year.

An average book is between 250 pages = 4 pages everyday until the end of the year to 320 pages = 5 1/2 pages a day to the end of the year.

What about you? Finished? Started, but not finished yet? Haven’t started?
