It worked, I can't believe it worked...

 ...but so Shawn suggested last night, when I confessed to feeling low about my writing, that I do what I used to do... WAY back: set-aside an hour in a place that felt more like an office (a desk, the dining room chair) and just sit there with the document open for an hour.  Set a timer, if necessary.  Try to write.  Write what you can.  Then, quit and give yourself permission to do the other things that need doing.

Well, it f*cking worked.

I just wrote for an hour on the Satan novel.  (And I really enjoyed it.)

YAY!!
