My plan is to continue with my current five-day-a-week work goal during the ROW80 break, and I will still check-in here on Monday mornings.<\/p>\n<p>For me, this Round has been an unqualified success, even though on a small scale. I&#8217;ve learned quite a lot by doing more drawing than writing. The two forms of creation are different but the acting of creating has a lot of similarities. I learned about myself and how I go about composing, the ways in which I am drawn to small details and have to learn how to fill in the bigger picture. About how little faith I have in myself and how hard I have to work to keep bolstering my confidence.<\/p>\n<p>I kept up with my goals during this Round of Words. Each month I did a consistent number of hours of work. I actually managed to maintain something like a regular schedule without balking and running away. This is a great, good thing for me, and something I can build on.<\/p>\n<p>Many thanks to the various ROW80 peeps who have shown up offering encouragement. I appreciated it very much. I plan to continue on through the break, but it&#8217;s definitely easier when you have a group to share with.<\/p>\n<p>Once again, this is the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.linkytools.com\/wordpress_list.aspx?id=265540&#038;type=basic&#038;AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1\">blog hop link<\/a> for today&#8217;s check-in.
