    Yes! I admit I do have number-of-words goals when I’m writing a first draft, but they’re small and easily doable, so they help to make me feel happy instead of stressing that I haven’t finished the book yet.

    But having “goals that challenge you” (bleah) or any goal after a first draft, I don’t see the point.

    And if there’s anything worse than arbitrary goals, it’s arbitrary deadlines … guaranteed to make me not finish something, ever.
