“You get to build your perfect space for reading and writing. What’s it like?”

The Million Desk is at the heart. In an ideal world, the monitor for my PC is on an arm, and the keyboard goes away easier, freeing up the desk. I’d have a nice water feature, a coffee station, and my Poäng within reach. Heated, and with a smart thermostat I can adjust without getting up. Mood and comfy lighting, and the whole medium sized room wired up with speakers for music, or to just be surrounded by rain or ocean tracks. A nice and easy to empty bin within arms reach, and the same with chargers. But to be honest, a lot of that is nice-to-haves. The set up I have right now is pretty perfect as is.

Ayyyyy 11am target! That has to be a healthy sign right? I didn’t like, stay up all night playing Skyrim and Magic Arena, right?

I might be stupid…

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.
