Today’s progress:

Project: White Raven draft two

New words: 2,158

Total words: 78,370

Goal: 100k

Writing:

Slow day today – every thought feels like it’s struggling its way up through layers of clay.  No writing yesterday due to appointments and such which left me very tired today, hence the slowness.

However!  I did sit down and plot out the rest of the book.  I had worked up a vague plotline, but had left several bits and pieces hanging.  I’m happy with this plot, now I just need to get the butt in the chair and get it all written.

I really hate losing weekdays to appointments.  I’m in a nice little flow with writing these days, and losing a day really disturbs that.  If I get enthused on the weekend, I may see if I can slip in an extra writing session to make up for it.  As far as things stand at the moment, I have about a month clear from appointments now, so I’m going to try to make it a goal to get this draft finished in this month.  Hopefully the brain complies with said plan.

Real life:

Laundry, just for something new and exciting.  Will go for a short walk very soon, since the back is screaming at me.Beauty:

Sleeping well last night.  Seriously, if you’ve never suffered from insomnia, don’t take your sleep for granted.  I’m enjoying every (relatively) unbroken night I get for the next few months.
