Okay from now on new WIP ideas go into the short story bucket no matter what they are! 1, that’ll be an interesting challenge to try to turn each idea into a short tight story and 2, I really can’t have any more active novel WIPs right now or nothing will be finished

It feels so counterintuitive to me but I need to learn to accept that a part of being consistent is being flexible, being okay with rescheduling something to a different part of my day if I need to so I still make sure I get it done
