What are we supposed to do; give a continuous update if we're happy with progress and sort of pretend we've forgotten when we drop behind (or hope that one's success inspires the others with competitive jealousy?
I quote from the first post:

You can set limits for yourself that the people who read this thread may or may not send you private messages to incite you to write more when they see that you are writing less than planned.
So in general this thread is here to help you to keep up with your writing. It's easy to give up, when all your environment does is give you shores and things to look after that take you away from your writing. Therefore it would be nice if the online people did just the opposite.
So in short: put down your deadlines and if you don't succeed, we'll send you messages to keep going/speed up. (I expect at least some people to take the effort to send messages too). In order to give the nudges only to the most needy, it is best if you post when you are making progress. Does this make sense?
