October 10th, 2021 – 1,110

~ Sam Shuttleworth

Ok today is going much better than expected. Just about to turn 3pm and all my writing tasks are done, HOR is looking good and 3 chapters are finished, and I’m about 2/3rds done with the latest WHT edit. The only real downer is I am exhausted on 5 hours of sleep and just need to go crash now, but I’ll take it. Gives me the best possible chance for the week ahead, which is good as I have a lot in my queue to do. And yes tomorrow is day 1,111 so that’s neat. No word on the desk’s arrival yet, but keeping an ear out. And hey, no more random boxes of someone else’s wine got delivered today so that’s a plus.

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.
