Rocketing off on a new Stardew playthrough. Maybe, depends on my energy levels. I managed to write at a decent time today, and with this post I should be all wrapped by half 9 in the evening. Now I normally wouldn’t consider that ‘great’, but I’m starting to think that my ‘good’ zone should be up to 9:30pm, and not so much of a sliding scale. It makes the days I write at 9 feel less successful than they actually are. More to the point, on a weekend when I don’t need to sleep yet? Why not, right?
I still need to figure out how best to slot in uni writing, but that is gonna be a Monday problem, as I need to rest up this weekend. On that note, time to go back to Stardew. Well, spreadsheets, then Stardew. I play Stardew weird.

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.
