I will be completely honest. I have failed this challenge so far every time it has come around. I am more of a planning person and need to have a schedule of sort. So I am going to schedule out each week and the tasks I want to do. Not really setting a number just hoping I can get enough done by the end of the month. My thought is half way into the month I will have enough drafted that I can go back and proof then schedule, I want to do that by the end of the challenge. Even if I have a bunch drafted which I know wont count but it will get me a lot farther than I am at the moment so its a win, win! Plus I could probably have a bunch also scheduled and that is a total…WIN!
Week 1 October 1st – October 7th
- I have a few things to organize before I officially get started but it wont take long and I hope it will get done on the Friday before.
- APP Reviews: This week I am planning to focus on getting my APP Reviews set up. I have a ton that I want to do and just haven’t had time. I plan to at least do one a day since they are complicated to set up. By the end of the week, I am hoping to have at least most drafted so I can proof and schedule by the end of the month.
Week 2 October 8th – October 14th
- Out with the Old/In with the New: This is a post for december, I have 12 to write except I can’t do Oct, Nov, December since they haven’t happened yet 🙂 But I can get those ready and pop in the info once the months pass. I head start on them would be great. I am hoping to draft and proof and schedule by the end of the month.
Week 3 October 10th – October 21st
- Discussion Posts and Memes: I am still not 100% sure what I want to do but I think this week I can focus on those memes and posts I have been wanting to try and get them scheduled to start in the new year.
Week 4 October 22nd – October 31st
- Continue with Whatever I didn’t finish the last 3 weeks.
- Proof and Schedule: If it hasn’t been done already, This week I will proof and schedule everything I was able to get completed and schedule them.
I have my fingers crossed that I am able to do all of this plus a couple posts that I still need to finish for October. Even if I get 15 schedules and 15 drafted. I will be over the MOON!!!
Are you joining the challenge? What is one of your goals?

Good luck, Michelle. I’m participating as well, hoping to get ahead so at least the blog isn’t stressful during November and December. 😉 I love that you have a plan of attack though! By the way, I’ll have Monster and a Book to you soon. I’m trying to get it finished up today. 🙂
Ha! I’ve failed it every time I’ve done it too. But I always am further along than I was before. So win win as you said.
I haven’t completed this challenge yet either, but hope springs eternal! Love your idea of breaking things down into weekly goals. I’m going to concentrate on catching up with my reviews, but want to do at least one discussion post and schedule some memes through December. Good luck!
I know your going to do great this time! Even five or six posts set up is getting ahead. You can do it!!! 🙂
Thanks, Stormi! <3
In my opinion you never fail this challenge, even if you only get one post written it’s still one post more. I love participating in this challenge and always join even though I don’t set a goal and just see how far I get. I’ve been working hard on getting some more October posts done, this week, so I can focus mainly on November during the challenge . Oh and I almost finished the monster and a book post, will send that to you soon. Good luck with the challenge and I hope you’ll get a lot of posts written and schedule!
Very true however the last few times I did it, I was only able to get all the posts done for the month of the challenge and they don’t count lol. This time I am so ready for it. I have a list of things to do and if my plan works I will have at least 15 done and 15 drafted. I am very excited about it.
