Writers Resolutions 2020

Some new things and some old things this year. My writing has been hit and miss lately. Mostly miss from the looks of the last two years' word counts. These are the things I want to do this year..
The Pile
I need to finish something out of the pile of unfinished stories. I would prefer more than one thing but I will just see how it goes. I don't want to add to it but I most likely will. My ultimate goal would be to not have a Pile at all.
Get Your Words Out
This year I went back to a word count goal. I decided to go easy on myself and do Light which is 75K. I think I can manage it even with my constant distractions.
NaNoWriMo and Camp Nano
I have no idea what I will be writing but I plan on doing both sessions of Camp Nano. I will probably use them to finish something.
I need to find a story that writes itself for NaNoWriMo. I might have better luck if I do. I also need to prep better with an outline and a worked out plot in mind.
Big Bangs and Fests
Het Bang - I'm currently writing a story for Het Bang. Arrow and Olicity is what I'm writing this year. I hope I get it finished this time.
After Camlann for Merlin BBC - This would be fun if I could find a good story to write. I think I'm just about out of stories to tell.
Unconventional Courtship - There wasn't a round last year. I hope there's on this year. I have a few summaries saved up.
Snowflake Challenge 2020 - This one is in progress now. I'll do some of it like always.
Sunshine Challenge - This one was new last year. If it runs this year I'll give it a try.
Writing communities
Camelot Drabble on LiveJournal. (Merlin) - I currently have two WIP's going here. Each prompt is a chapter on something. I hope to finish at least one of them by the end of the year.
Puzzle Prompts - I would like to get back to this one. Dark Realms needs more episodes.
Land communities
Game of Cards - A new phase just started after a long break. I can't wait to get started on the new challenges.
The Lighthouse - Cycle 2 is winding down and hopefully Cycle 3 will start soon. I like this one. I get to guest host challenges. I try to get an early slot and do at least three challenges.
Hopefully, I can keep up with everything I have planned and meet my word goals.
