4th Quarter writing goals.

What are my current goals as a writer?

For this quarter my writing goals are to keep my writing fluent, cut out redundancy, and learn to not get stuck while i am writing. My plan for this quarter is to just plan before each post instead of waiting until the last minute to do it. If i plan ahead of time all three of these goals should be much easier to achieve. One more goal i have for this final quarter of the school year is to brainstorm and write out what i want to write about before actually writing about it. This way i can know what i am going to write about so it will help me with these other few goals as well.

By keeping my writing fluent i will be able to finish my blog post faster and also be more efficient when taking the time to write it. If i already know what i want to write about before hand, i can just keep writing without stopping whereas i usually stop during the midst of it because i get stuck. This method has seemed to work in the past but it has seemed to be more time consuming in the end. I have planned out what i wanted to write on a separate piece of paper but it always ends up taking a while for me to choose what i actually want to write about. Though brainstorming before takes time, in the long run it is a lot more useful. By planning things out before i write i will for sure be able to cut down on time and also get my writing done completely without having to think about what to write.

Another goal which has always been a goal for me is cutting out redundancy. I tend to write things over and over again except in different formats. This is a bad habit which also is not a very good method of writing. I need to work on this by rereading my work before posting it or by even asking someone else to critic my writing. I could also plan as well for cutting out redundancy. By planning it will just make my writing smoother which will therefore not make me have to stop and think about what to write. If i have to stop and think about what i write then i might go back to the same sort of topic i was on before.

The last thing i want to work on is not getting stuck when i write. It is different from keeping my writing fluent because for that i want to just not get stuck. For this i want to become more fluent in my writing as in writing my posts like writing fluency when i write. Which also leads back to planning. If i plan then i can get everything done. Planning seems to be the main goal for me, so as of now my main goal is to plan ahead before writing my blog posts.
