Good morning, Readers!
Picture
Found this image on wallpaperplay.com. I really like it, because there's something vaguely sinister about it, and the idea that something otherwise portrayed as whimsical is actually sinister makes me happy.
I am almost all caught up on the things I should have gotten done over the weekend.  The articles I should have written during that time were written yesterday.  One will be published this morning (and linked to by me tomorrow, because I'm too lazy to write another blog post), and the other will be published Thursday or so.  I'll link to that one on Monday, because, again, it's a good excuse not to write a blog post that day.

Unfortunately, of course, that means that I wasn't able to write my manuscript at all.  This makes me sad, but maybe it also has its uses.  When I'm exhausted, my brain doesn't function nearly so well as it should.  Taking a break from my main gig in that circumstance may help with the quality control.  Also, it might give me some time for the next part of the story to brew in the back of my mind, giving me a better writing session when I sit down.

That's actually why I give myself the weekend off from writing.  That, and my weekends are usually so full I'm exhausted by the time they end.  There's no time to write on the weekends.

So, hopes are high that today's writing session will be fruitful.  That said, I'm also still quite tired, so I'll be pleased to reach my goal of one thousand words.  If I hit my usual two thousand, that will be just a bonus.  Or that's the mindset I'm trying to maintain.  With writing having gone so well up until now, I will be a bit disappointed if I don't manage to keep the pace.

Anyway, I have to go do the writing thing now.  Hope you all have a lovely day.

​Ciao!
