I feel, a little less delirious than I did last night? That is not saying much given I spent like 90+ minutes of yesterday feeling as if I was having a stroke, and then most of the day after that in just full body agony, which has given way now to full body aching with some big pain spikes, but yeah. That was, not fun. Thankfully I don’t think it was a migraine, which I suspected given my phone and laptop screens didn’t make it worse, even though bright ceiling lights did. I’ve managed to get up and move around the house a little but only for about 1,300 steps or so. And I wrote target, journalled, edited, Wordle’d and now am blogging, thus showing that I refuse to let even the worst probable-PoTS flare up I’ve had so far stop me.
I’ll figure this out.

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.
