Late one tonight but frankly I don’t care. I’ve spent most of the evening watching funny snooker compilations and that’s far more fun and rewarding than writing WAN anyway. Yeah I will but it’s far from my priority this second. This kind of dismissive rebellion and focus o whimsy is how I intend to get through this slog. You have to find little things to brighten up the process when the topic is this grim. Thing is, normal horror I’m fine with; it’s this one character I loathe.
Anyway better get back to it. Man though, taking today slow and focusing on little fun stuff, that made a big difference.

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.
