I have really come to focus on finding remedies for my executive dysfunction. Having so much left to do can feel paralyzing.

I am normally one to keep work and the state of the world separate. But these days, that is becoming harder as a writer and a person consuming so much senseless tragedy. It's harder to maintain those boundaries when the world is once again on fire.

Ugh. I have a new idea and I am still deep in line edits. I have to win one war before I can fight another.

2025 as a writing year comes to a close for me. What did I accomplish? 8th revision of Halved. 4 revisions of Lily Webb. Close enough to know that I will be done in 2026. Writing is a long slog, paragraph by paragraph. Progress is slow, but progress.

First 1/3 of the book - meticulously edited.
Next 1/3 ... reasonably edited.
Final 1/3 ... are we there yet?

I know it will all get another polish, but with each chapter done at the whetstone I admire the edge.

Amazon, please stop asking me if books I bought month ago met my expectations. I still have unread books I bought in 2012. Be real.

I don't every want to say that editing through my 4th revision is finally going well, no, no, no.

I wonder how many other things in life have these kinds of errors after at least three full revisions? Laws maybe?

Good writing is a magic trick. They can re-read it to see where you hid the Ace of Spades, but the empty palm needs to hit.

Now imagine the many dramas going on in the author's life in the years it took to write, edit, and publish the book.

The benefit of my 4th editing pass on this section is that I remember having the same argument with myself the other three times. Hmm...shows up on my editing radar every time does it?

When I am in revisions, the word count quota flips. My word count is -200 today. Also, who wrote this garbage?

Each scene brings its own challenges. This one is all about water - how many ways are there really to describe things being wet?
