Ok enough with the lazy days already. Boxing Day sure, I buy that, and even today to an extent but I need to cut this out. I’ve still got a lot to do before bed because I shunted 1K and all my chores into the evening. Discipline is not my strong suit right now for sure. Still even so, life is pretty good right now. Quiet will do nicely. Might need a digital detox for a few days all the same.

At some point I have a few additional writing chores to do. I’ve gotta upload several chapters of TSS to WattPad to cover my hiatus, and pull down the text of TUS, VOL and WHT back into Google Docs. Honestly maintaining those as the master versions is vital as I don’t trust WattPad all that much. Once I copy all of them into Google Docs again I need to download the lot and burn them to a CD. That has been a long time coming. And losing my catalogue feels like a very 2020 disaster…

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.
