I’ve had a busy but productive morning, and the rest of today I imagine will be much the same. Work tasks aplenty to knock off and some good news from HR in that I might have an opportunity I’ve wanted for a while: running more productivity and workplace “feel in control” sessions. So all in all a good day, if one where the jobs are flying from all angles.
Writing is going well, another 1,150 words added to WHT today. I think I’m 500 words if that off the midpoint. That would give a final word count of 95,000 words. That’s not bad, but I’ll be looking to cut about 15,000 of that if so. I’m nervous that anything above 80K will ramble on too long, but that is probably unfounded. I have to trust myself to write at length more.

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.
