I think I might be sick. Noooooo. Did whatever bug I've picked up have to happen when I'm already behind on my writing deadline??? Sheesh.

I'm half a chapter behind my weekly goal on my wip, but given how rough this week has been, I'm actually really happy with that.

Been going through a rough flare up (thanks hEDS 😑) which means I haven't gotten much writing done.
Honestly, I'm really discouraged.

Being a hEDS writer means typing is a professional hazard. I've got yet another thumb subluxation. 😮💨

Crunching the numbers to see how much I need to write or week to finish this first draft before the end of the year and it is - gulp - a lot more than expected. I fell behind in Sept/Oct, and now the catch up feels daunting.

Fellow #writers - is there any November writing tracker/challenges going on? I want to really motivate and push myself this month to get down to the last couple of chapters on this draft. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

I think about this advice a lot: start your project now, today, even if it'll take you 10 years to do, because the time is going to pass anyway. Time is going to march on! Might as well have something in progress!
