Took today at a very relaxed pace which I don’t regret. Writing this at almost midnight, which I do. Yeah it’s gonna be another stubby entry as I need to try and get close to 8 hours even if it’s borderline impossible at this point. The one positive I will say is NHO feels like it’s turning from train wreck into less disastrous train wreck. Also I feel less stressed, that’s the actual victory here.

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.
