Gonna be another short one but for the best reasons. I got target at midday, and went on to hit 1,800 words. And the rest of today? BuJo, and I’m on the verge of clearing an entire month of journalling backlog. If I manage to repeat this tomorrow, the journal will be on the cusp of being up to date. If I can rush, who knows, maybe I’ll get it all done. And man, does it feel good.
Tomorrow is the final day of this god forsaken year but that’s one too many. Fingers crossed I’ll hit target super early, I’ll clear the BuJo, and come January I’ll have a brand new clean start to the year. That would be amazing.

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.
