Well that went well. I wrote at lunch yesterday and that helped out a lot. I got my full evening to myself, got to bed on time, managed to relax and rest in equal measure. I even took what I talked about yesterday on dividing the day, then wrote it up as a bullet journal double page. Then this morning I sat down at work, laid this in front of me, and took a 20 minute window before our team meeting. I hit target at 10am. Keeping this short as I’m going to a team meeting, but damn.

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.
