Today's Snowflake challenge was to set goals. I have already set my main goal: Get cat! There are other goals stacked behind that though (like 'finish the last bits of apartment redo so space is ready for cat'.)

Fandom-wise, I was thinking something like "keep up with snowflake challenge" or "post something to DW every day in January". I was about to go to bed without posting and do snowflake tomorrow but then realized that was a bad start to the goal!

I had also considered setting a goal of "post something to AO3 the last week of every month" - which wouldn't have to mean finish a fic, I have so many abandoned wips and ficlets and stuff - but idk, that might be too much commitment!

I also need to do a year-end crafting round-up and this year's crafting ambitions for a crafting forum I'm on, but: tomorrow! Because today I accidentally a three-hour walk outside in the snow (it was SO PRETTY, y'all. Prettiest snowstorm we've had in a decade. Every six feet was another Kinkade painting.)

Get cat is an *excellent* goal, and I hope there will be pictures when you achieve it.

I've been doing "a fic a month" for over a decade now and it's great for me. It doesn't have to be good, it doesn't have to be long, it doesn't have to have a great title or summary, it just has to be finished.

As a reader, I am much happier to get an abandoned WIP than no fic at all :D
