I'm falling a bit behind on my goals. So here is me, kicking *myself* in the pants. I really want to finish this novel, if for no other reason than so I can go on to other projects. Right now I have this fantastic idea in my head that seems so shiny and new and writeable and it beacons me with it's sexiness and newness.

And I remind myself that *this* idea seemed just as shiny when I started, and that no matter what, all ideas eventually lose their novelty. You have to keep plugging because it's not just about novelty, it's about something better.

At the very least, it's about finishing to prove that you can finish at all.

I think the cat says it better, though.

It doesn't help to hold yourself accountable to your friends if you don't post the results.

For those who were ramping up to throw some shame, sorry. I made the wordcount, I just didn't make the post. The goal was 41766 words, and I got to 14970 words before I called it quits for the day. That was somewhere around...maybe 10pm.
