It’s Sunday. Which means, I washed the car, finished reading a book, hoovered upstairs and started to cook dinner. Got to love how this isn’t really a relaxation day. I still need to write and go for a run.

God, I don't think there's a single thing going on in the world that isn't going to make my stress levels sky-rocket.

Trying to rebuild my writing habit. I'm currently writing a sequel to a story which crashed and burnt on release. This story really isn't for readers, it's for me. I want to give my characters a HEA, not just a HFN.

I’ve spent the last hour or so working on notion instead of writing. I refuse for AI to figure this shit out. How do I learn otherwise?

I'm trying to figure out a writing schedule. I had a pretty good one when I was on holiday from work. Now I'm back the schedule pretty much crashed and burned.

I suspect a majority of content creators for TikTok were American. Banning the app will have a knock on effect for everyone who enjoyed their content or those who monetised their work and a majority of their audience was in American. Ouch. That’s got to hurt. #tiktok #tiktokban

It’s Sunday. Which means I need to drag myself out for a run. Don’t get me wrong. I enjoy running but I’ve been fighting this bug since Thursday. Slow and steady. That’s all I need to do.

32 pages left to edit and I'm listening to pop instrumentals inspired by bridgeton. My son's still asleep and I need to sort out lunch. Tomorrow is the deadline.

It’s Friday. I’ve been really good at keeping myself healthy but I also work in education. It was only a matter of time before a bug hit me.

It's Saturday, which means it's balancing adult stuff (cleaning) with writing. I've got 870 words done and now I need to sort the laundry out and probably put more on.

I cut down on social media and then popped onto Meta/Facebook. Big mistake. For every post by a friend, there's six adverts and Facebook shorts in my feed and so much bloody AI images masquerading as something real. Blocked one account and then another appeared in my feed with the same image.

We’re in the final one and a bit weeks before the holidays hit. I was quite happy when I took this job and it was term time only. I even felt bad for my coworkers. Then it hit me. I’m tied to specific dates that I can have off. Those guys aren’t, they have a lot more freedom than me.
