Back to work today. I've finally reached the 40k mark on this project. Still less than half way through, but it's nice to be out of the 30ks that I've been in seemingly forever. The section of the book is a fresh one, so I hope to build some momentum.

Monday Update
I have two consecutive days off for the first time in a month. So far I've used the time to rest. Yesterday was largely the Super Bowl and game day food. I've got some words down though. TANK is moving right along. More later.

Happy Friday Everyone!
Progress was solid. I'm still in the 30ks on words down which feels like where I have been for an eternity. It happens every book at some point. I'm just glad that I seem to be moving forward again. Heading into work. More later

Good progress yesterday. I'm contemplative this morning. One thing I struggle with as a writer is comparing my production to others. Not just writers but people doing it full time and are considered prolific in their own production. Just random thoughts

Maybe your friend knows but doesn't KNOW. With music a lot of times people have heard a song a hundred times, but didn't connect it to the artist. I pray this is the case...

Today's update is a bit light. Things started out well enough, but eventually I got tired. Working all these extra hours is catching up with me. Regardless, things are still moving forward. I don't have a deadline beyond this year. More later.

Back to work today. I might be back to only working five days this week. We'll see. I did get some words in yesterday which was nice. I feel like I've been in the 30k range forever. Regardless, TANK is still moving forward. More writing later.

Rocky has been extra needy today hence him getting the picture. I cleaned Willow's cage today, and he was underfoot the entire time.

Well I worked all weekend again. Monday is my weekend now. That said I did manage a few words. I'd like to get some more down today, but Rocky is making his presence known.

Mined some words yesterday and the cold hasn't let up. So I have a lot more work at my day job. Living on Hoth seems to be the new normal. 🤷♂️

Thursday Update!
Hey, we're making it two in a row! Some words were written and I tied a chapter I had written in advance into things. I'm still working a lot but there has been progress.

Neeeeew Update!
See I have been writing! I told you so. The evidence is right there. Look at it! Numbers that represent words! It's beautiful. It's 0 degrees fahrenheit right now and I'm sitting in the Jeep waiting to go into work. More later.

I thought about taking some, but my time outside was largely with the dogs or shoveling. Neither instance left me wanting to take off my gloves to use my phone. 😂

I swear I wrote yesterday! I ended up running late this morning, so I didn't have time for the usual update stuff. We're still battling the elements out here which I'm sure will affect my day at work today.

Well, I worked all weekend, including yesterday which saw me clearing snow for eight hours. While I listened to a lot of audiobook(s), it really didn't leave me in a great place for writing. The upside is with all the snow I have some time.
