A thought. . .
I just went back and checked the log from last year, and by this point last year I was already done with the Prep! Granted, there were no bonus assignments either. But then I realized that this year I have a much firmer grasp on my characters and setting. Last year's novel was a flop. I think I quit working on it early because I ran out of story to tell.

So, I guess what I'm saying is, if you're chugging along, getting assignments done the day they're due, you're doing well. *Thumbsup* It's better to spend as much time as you need planning out details than to rush through the process and not have a solid foundation to begin with. Don't be discouraged by those who have already finished the Prep!
