Though tomorrow is the big day itself, today is the actual 4 year mark. I have now written a thousand words a day for four years. And that milestone came on my first day of university in eight years. It’s wild to me how well that lined up. I’m looking forward to a day of reading and writing tomorrow between my next lecture and my first seminar, and just losing myself in the student life. I’m back at work alongside from Wednesday, but outside of that, it’s gonna be full steam ahead studying, and for the time being more ATM, which, I still need to add to the sidebar. Imma keep saying this until I actually do it.
You watch this become the next running gag…

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.
