– The text didn’t post properly so editing to writing this up again –
I had a restful day, but because of this I didn’t get a whole lot done. I’m finishing up my target for today, but it’s going to all be typing up. I don’t regret this, I needed to have a more relaxed day because I was buring out pretty bad.
Tomorrow I think I’m going to just do another 1,000 typed up. Ambition is good, and I’m glad that I’m pushing myself. That all being said, I am making myself very run down, and that is not sustainable. I don’t want to lose the habit, but I’m under enough strain right now that I’d prefer to avoid pushing myself over the edge.

I’m Sam, and I live to write. I spent most of the first 8 years of my adulthood trying to balance writing with a large amount of crap in my personal life, until towards the end of 2018 I threw everything out and started afresh with just my writing. I built the new me around one goal: I have to write at least 1,000 words a day. I called this goal 1K, and it changed my life. So long as I write a thousand words a day, the day is a success, and atop that I've managed over time to build the life I wanted all those years.
My greatest flaws as a writer is I still use too many adjectives, adverbs, connectives as openers, accidental passive voice and I don't force my work down people's throats enough on pain of extreme and unusual torture. My greatest strength is I know my greatest flaws and I'm working on them.
