And then there’s that

The plan was to eat an early dinner, then write 3000 words tonight. The start would be difficult, but I was pretty sure I could get through it.

Plan, meet reality.

In reality, it’s crunch week at the day job right now. Actually, kind of crunch month, from now through August 15th I have some pretty tight deadlines. August 20th I start the new position.

So I ended up working about 10 pretty stressful hours today. I worked only about 9 yesterday, and managed to write about 1000 words. Tonight, I’m just exhausted and ugh.

Tomorrow night I will write. And write and write and write. No matter how much I might want to finish the novel this week, I think it’s okay if I don’t.
