I have this odd habit where I now write this entry after target, which was never the goal. That’s why I didn’t write it at 10, or 11. I have 2,000 words now, but I refuse to count 1,350 of them. I was in a foul mood, and the only thing I felt like writing? Well, you might have heard me slandering a little book called The Wanderer…
I’m going to write 400 words of WHT and go to bed. I am disgusted in myself. Imagine how I’ll feel when I’m writing that book as my main story…

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.
