I avoided writing WHT yesterday, working on a write up for my local MTG team instead. This morning I avoided writing at all. I think it’s having a positive effect; I feel a bit less strung out than I was before.
I’m using this working break to start unpicking what the idea behind WHT is, so that I can write it properly and be hooked by the concept again. Save the Cat is acting once again as my guide in this process, so it’s back to log lines and genre definition for me. I’ll update when I know where I am.

I’m Sam, and I live to write. I spent most of the last 10 years 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.
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.
