Monthly Wrap-Up | June 2022

           Okay. So. June did not go as planned, but it didn't go badly.
         It kind of looks like it went badly from the chart, but that's actually fairly misleading in this case. A BIG part of what makes my word count so low this month has been the fact that I've honed my ability to copy-paste / modify slightly so that my form-letters of job-application type correspondence is hyper-efficient.
Picture
       I've applied for a lot of new positions this month, and been in significant discussion with a good number of industry professional. A lot of those conversations have been Zoom / phone calls rather than my usual email / messaging sort of communication, so that's another factor in what's made the word count look so low this month.

           And honestly, it isn't even all that low. It's a solid 6k better than last month and easily hits my default baseline-goal of 20k for the month.
          It's true, that I didn't hit 30k, as I'd hoped to, and it's certainly not slanted more towards the creative side than not like I'd been aiming for, but it's not actually as bad as I thought when I first looked at the summary.
            For July, I'm gonna keep things simple again.
           30k main goal, 40k in reach, ~50% creative, and at least 1 query letter / 20 job-contact communications (either new apps or follow ups or some such in-between).

           Nothing overly complicated, and all very plausible. 
           Nothing too specific, everything still serving as a contribution to progress.

          We'll have to see where the summer goes!

GOOD LUCK!!
