Each form has the following fields: Date-The weekday, Sunday through Monday, is already filled out for you, but you put the date in yourself. This means you can start at any time. And if you skip a week or two, it's ok. You can pick up where you left off and not waste any unused space.Story/Article-This book is good for both fiction writers and non-fiction freelancers. Every sheet can be used for either fiction stories/books or non-fiction articles. Type of Goal- This is where you say what it is you are doing that day. Are you writing or researching or editing?
