MY 30 Day Challenge

Hello Everyone :)
After debating for a long time, I have finally decided on what my 30 day challenge will be!

I have always enjoyed writing very much, almost every day I come up with new ideas for novels. Sometimes my dreams even give me a starting idea that blooms into a whole new story. I picture the names, their appearance and personality and the whole story plot. The problem is: they only ever stay in my mind. I never actually put them on paper. I have had this problem for years! I manage to plan everything out and have developed practically the complete story. It's such a waste for me to just keep it in my head. A few times I have actually started putting the plot down on paper and maybe even written a page of it or two. But that's all that happens! I have at least ten different documents in my computer of my started stories, but I never manage to get past writing a chapter.

In grade 7, we had to write a story that was almost partly a novel. I loved putting my ideas on paper and I managed to ace the project. The only reason I finished it though was because I HAD to. It's not that I don't want to write a novel or that I don't enjoy it, because believe me; I do. It's almost as if I have a fear of failing.

That's why I have chosen to try to start at least one novel. I want to finish at least 3 chapters, and maybe if I manage to do that before 30 days, then I can extend the amount of chapters. I realize that that may not sound like a lot, but planning out a WHOLE story and all of the characters takes a LOT longer than you may think.
The type of challenge I have chosen isn't exactly something that I do separately every day, but it does change over a period of time. What I mean by that is that I may not do an even amount of writing each day do to how busy I am that day, but the result over time should add up. When 30 days has passed, then I can add up the amount of pages and divide them into 30. This way I can see my average amount of pages per day.

I plan to achieve this goal by motivation and believing in myself. I have a friend named Ashley who loves to write too, and she always motivates me to write. We can compare our stories and progress, so when I see her write a lot, then I will want to as well. I will need to put a lot of time and work in to my novel, because I would like for it to be top quality. Tomorrow, I will go through all of my story ideas and choose one. On my calendar I will have a mini goal. Such as: Write at least 4 pages of your novel during the next three days.

I would love to hear your opinions on my goal and if you think it's realistic or not. :)
