Day 2,793: Client Work
Busy busy busy.
It’s bed time again, and here I am just sitting down, finally, to write this entry.
The book is going well. I’m past halfway, now. Still in the meat of Act 2, but things are just about to really get crazy, which is fun. I have a vision of this story. The book is following that vision. It’s very, very satisfying. And my cowriter seems to be onboard with it, too, thank the stars. I really hope it turns out well. I think there’s a good chance it will.
Okay…had to write down...

Day 2,792: Hello, Wendy
Late!
Great day. Writing was solid. Got great feedback from my co-writer. Podcasting was EXCELLENT tonight. We watched a film that genuinely blew both of us away. Totally unexpected. First time I think it’s happened for both Josh and I at the same time. THAT is what the list is supposed to be about, you know?
Great day.
Night night.

Day 2,791: Twelve Pages
I…think I wrote 12 pages today? Something like that.
The fact that I don’t for exact how many it was is actually quite the amazing thing. On the one hand, every single one of those pages I wrote today was hard-won. I had to grind out each and every one of them. I wasn’t exactly in the flow today, probably because I’m just getting back to it after work and life keeping me away for about a week…

Day 2,790: Kewee
Came up with a fun new world-building concept for my current book. It’s fun. Makes the way they communicate feel familiar, but also scifi. Love finding stuff like that as I go. The plot will present something that needs an answer, and I get to make up that answer!
Still…feeling pretty burned out from last week. But, also weirdly ready for the week. Ready to get some shit done I couldn’t get done last week because it was so busy.
Wish me luck on that.
Night.

Day 2,789: Ma’am
Panda’s home. All is right with the world.
Oh boy. What a week. I’m…burned out. But, I did some recovering today. I feel better. Less anxious. Made some decisions about the project. Still lots more to make.
Gonna get up at a decent time tomorrow so I can get some writing done. Wish me luck!
