So I actually managed to do some editing! It’s been a long time since I felt up to that, and I’m hoping today wasn’t a fluke. I also found I really enjoy rereading WHT, it’s just fun, but it’s more emotional moments hold up to. As I did that on top of an 8 hour work day I’m now utterly knackered, but it was worth it. Just trying to keep positive.
Let’s see if the PM’s address right now knocks that mood into the gutter…

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.
