I wrote one dialogue in Georgian for Team Rare's February Challenge. So, the counter is
as follows:

05 Georgian dialogues out of 30
04 Norwegian dialogues out of 30
04 French dialogues out of 30
03 Chinese dialogue out of 10

With two weeks left, I'd like to accomplish the challenge for at least one language. Will
try my best. French would be a good option, if I decided to write a bit more loosely, not
worrying so much about the content.

So, the challenge time is over. I will repeat the previous post:

05 Georgian dialogues out of 30
04 Norwegian dialogues out of 30
04 French dialogues out of 30
03 Chinese dialogue out of 10

It's quite far from what I aimed. I'd say my biggest problem is that I failed to insert
those active tasks into my routine. I really have to work a way out for incorporating
them. I tend to leave active work for the end, when my quality time is already gone and
my brain just isn't functioning that sharply after having been through texts and videos
in 7 languages.

Ok, end result:

German: 64/50 (beat my goal by 14 dialogues)
Spanish: 38/50 (fell short by 12 dialogues)

Kind of a wash, but disappointing that I was not able to complete the Spanish piece.

I may be up for another dialogue challenge soon.

It's a good idea for the learning-based challenge and/or consistency thread. These should help incorporate it into your routine.

(for the consistency thread, you don't have to write a dialogue a day. You can just measure the time spent - whether you're actually writing it or practising/polishing/doing anything else that it involves)
