Appointment fatigue is so real. Sometimes you have to take breaks from pushing and advocating. But it's so worth it to finally find an option that *helps*

I had the exact same experience with this one. Comparing it to Gideon was an absolute joke.

I spent most of each morning kind of brainstorming and planning my next few scenes and then most of the afternoon and evening writing. Plenty of breaks to rest my eyes and stuff, but really, the trick for me was prioritizing the writing time over everything else. It was fun!

I didn't do anything super special. I've seen people set up cozy little nooks to make the retreat feel different from their normal writing setup, which is super cute. My strategy was just to make sure I didn't have any errands I'd want to run over the weekend and really prioritize butt-in-chair time

bahaha, that sums up his personality pretty well

Good luck! I hope the editing goes smoothly for you!

I started this draft in June and progress was full of fits and starts, even though I really liked my outline.

It wasn't until #WriteRAWR that I finally put in the bulk of my words.

Damn, I'd be like "shut up down there!" 😆
