So...still the same. Trying to rest my eye. I did write up some notes for my revision coming up.
Thinking of you. Give yourself time - healing is important.
2,042 today. Days off work are great.
My office building was closed today at noon because of the incoming storm. The trouble is, I was working from home, which means I was WORKING. Sigh.
Update a while later: I just wrote my insecurities and trashed them. A writer can't allow other people's negative attitudes to influence their decisions. 800 more angry words, shredded. And I feel much better.
I used to write things down, tear up the paper, and burn it. Whatever gets you writing again is worth it.
So, yeah. Well done on WASTING SEVERAL MONTHS WITH THE TRICKSY PLOTSHIFTS, MCCARDEY
Dammit!
Why do I do that?
The process is what it is - do not question the process!
49,345!
I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!
Go, Ken! Tomorrow you'll hit it!
But now I can write again! All weekend
Continuing my new WIP.
Enjoy the break, and enjoy the weekend!
1235 words today.
My characters are in such a dysfunctional marriage but they aren't even married. Loved writing this scene!
I love stuff like that.
Picked through some beta feedback. I'm so schizophrenic about it - I'm both fascinated by and terrified of it at the same time.
I am glad I did a read-through first, though, because I react to almost all of it with one of "Oops," "Oh, yeah, good point," or "Yeah, sorry - I'll fix that!" So far no surprises, although some of the systemic stuff...yeah, sorry, I'll fix that; except I'm not entirely sure I can. It is very useful to discover what is noticed, though (and sometimes interesting to discover what is NOT).
