Nothing Exciting

12/6/2019

Good morning, Readers!
Picture
I nabbed this from wallpapersafari.com.
Well, there is nothing really much to report.  Things are continuing along much as they have all week.  I'm writing well (thus far), I'm doing my run training thing, and the weights thing.  I'm day-dreaming about my next tattoo.... You know, the usual.

Speaking of the writing, I'm pleased with my current pace, but my streak of two thousand words a day won't last.  I'm generally happy if I happen to make a thousand words, and I do try to reach at least that.  However, my focus in the last couple of manuscripts shifted from reaching a word count to the number of hours spent in intensive writing mode.  That's two, for the record.  If I'm really feeling it, I might go for three, but two hours is about as much time I can spend in intense focus.  Much more is utterly exhausting, even though I'm only really sitting.

I post my daily word count on Facebook and Twitter, but it's not the number of words on the page that matter to me any more.  That said, I'm absolutely thrilled with the pace that I've managed to achieve these past couple of days, and I hope to continue it for a while yet.  I might start struggling soon, though, as I've only got so many scenes pre-written in my head.  Still, for now, I'm thrilled.

I'm feeling a bit tired today, what with the change in my physical activity levels still needing getting used to and the fact that I might have gotten to bed about an hour later than usual last night.  I had to eat, and then I got caught up listening to some music, which is always my Achilles heel, and suddenly it was extremely late and I needed to be in bed ages ago.

Le sigh.

So maybe my writing session won't go so well today.  Right, I have to go and restart this stupid computer, because the mouse cursor is lagging.  Again.  Gods I hate this computer.

Have a great day.

​Ciao!
