A Self-Reward

I am a super fan of self-rewarding myself. I have already planned on finding a resturant that serves dry-aged beef for when I land an agent. I have also given myself other smaller rewards, like I get to go to Bdubs for finishing NaNoWriMo (food is a common reward), or I get to read a book for an hour after finishing my writing for the day. Bribery is an important part of my writing process and it works well for me.

Last September I bought my reward for finishing The Huntsman. The plan back then was to pound out the whole novel for NaNoWriMo. That ended up not being something I was able to achieve. So that reward is still waiting in a little gold box until I finish my rough draft. My new plan is to have it done by the end of May. I’ll post a picture of my reward when I get to give it to myself.
