I was very ill today. I did manage to work, but I had to do it from home. The weirdest part of that is I was starting to ween myself off of my walking stick, which I’d been on since last Wednesday/Thursday. And yet, for all that, I got real poorly today. Ah well, I guess it happens. But on the plus side, I think I’m on the home stretch of TEL now, so that’s nice. I don’t know just yet what I’ll be doing right after, but I am leaning towards two essay questions a day, or one and some short story writing as my attempted norm. 500 words is a good length for practice questions without referencing, so I’m in a good place there.
Now if you’ll excuse me, Imma go crash again…

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.
