Last year I did 2,000 words and 200 pictures, which for me is about 4 updates. So this year I figured I would bump it up a little and try to do 5 updates. Same story and everything!
Updating my goal as I'm definitely not going to meet that one lol

This Should total out to 50,000 words. Which is insane, but I'm going to go for it!
I'm actually going to lower my total post goal from 59 to 50. I'm at 40 now, and being a day behind my proposed schedule is stressing me out. I will still get my 50k words, and I may still get more than 50 posts, but there's no point in stressing about it when my main goal of 50k words will be met, anyway. Thanks, Livvie! (And Blam!)

I'm going to need to majorly reduce my word goal. I started online classes a few weeks ago and recently started working again AND dating someone, so I have a lot to do and not much free time, and I also haven't had a want to even open my game in weeks. I have pictures for one more update that I still need to edit and post, so I'm going to make my new goal 10,750 words since I think I can hit that with one update.

I was wondering if there was anyway I could get rid of my picture goal. Due to unforeseen issues with my health, I haven't gotten to play as much as I like, though I have been writing and still feel I can meet my writing goal. This SimsNaNo was more focusing on writing for me anyway. Let me know if there is any trouble.

50,000 (words, not images). I am not going to set a picture goal as the words are where I need the push.

:check: A little bit about why you picked the goal you did (not required, but highly encouraged so we can support each other!):
I haven't been playing or writing for the past few months and this is a stretch but doable, if I can average a post every other day for the month. I am hopeful that once I get to playing, I can reach the top goal of 50,000, but that will be the super stretch this year.

Teresa works perfectly for me.

Story Name: Off the Grid with Toddlers <<this is my primary story, even though there will only be 3 updates for it
Link to the story's Boolprop link: viewtopic.php?f=50&t=6476

Story Name: Kat's Kisses <<Summer Fete/PRIDE event story
Link to the story's Boolprop link: viewtopic.php?f=247&t=6473

Story Name: Rhodes to Riches
Link to the story's Boolprop link: viewtopic.php?f=50&t=6423

Story Name: Christmas Family MSC

Story Name: Loose Screws ISBI

Time to register my changes. I can't believe the end of the month is already next week.

First, changes to the actual stories:
Remove these:

Story Name: Christmas Family MSC
Link to the story's Boolprop link: viewtopic.php?f=50&t=6474


Story Name: Loose Screws ISBI
Link to the story's Boolprop link: viewtopic.php?f=50&t=6475


Add this:
Story Name: Drifting Along
Link to the story's Boolprop link: viewtopic.php?f=50&t=5507

Word count goal change:
My goal of 50,000 was based upon posting daily, and as the month comes to a close, I am losing steam. Due to various reasons I am not going to post anything this weekend. Since I will be losing two days of updates, I am going to reduce my word count goal to 45,000. I am currently at 41,000 words, so I still need to play/write another 4,000 words before July 31.

:check: A little bit about why you picked the goal you did (not required, but highly encouraged so we can support each other!): It's my first time doing SimNaNo, so I just picked a number I may achieve? I honestly have no idea how much I can do - so I picked a reasonable number. If it changes, I'll make it higher.

Just Pink, thanks.

I'm lowering my pic-count due to having miscalculated how much it takes. It's now 300.

Adding a fifth story to finish my goals for the month, since I'm stuck in writer's block hell on my Vampire story at the moment. Sorry for changing stuff right at the end like this - hopefully it's not too much trouble!

:check: A Tangled Yarn
:check: https://www.boolprop.net/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=6555

This is, again, just to finish out the month's goals, so goal is three posts.
