This one really doesn't bother me the way other memes do. 🤷‍♀️

We host a book swap at the end of the year. We collect donations and then students can all get the same number of books to keep, regardless of how many they donated.

Oh wow, those are great!

It's the opposite for me! Staff meetings are worse to clean up after than classes of students!

For me it’s about an hour a day. I definitely burned out when I tried to do a thousand words every day, but now November is pretty much the only time of year I write a new novel.

Revisions are a big struggle for me, so extra good luck for yours!

I agree. This is year 20 for me and that’s what I do! After year 10 or so, I started to aim for 2,000 a day so I can finish earlier!
