S1: Day 102 (102)

This week has ended up being really hard mentally because the kids are really frustrated with school. Obviously, they are my priority, and because of the emotional stress, I need to recover and figure something out. I have a lot to meditate on before Monday. A lot.

S1: Day 95 (95)

This week has been a week of breakthrough so far. I’m not caught up on my plotting things, but I am through the tough parts of my story and it’s starting to flow smoothly. It’s a huge weight off of my shoulders, and I’m very excited. Not much else to share beyond that!

S1: Day 88 (88)

I’m writing a lot, but I’m getting tired easily. Perhaps I am being too ambitious. Getting in the writing zone is difficult, and I don’t mean just getting into the zone itself. There are consequences, much like with everything else in life. One consequence is that I get so in the zone, so into my […]

S1: Day 81 (81)

Hello and welcome to Thursday Thoughts! It’s midweek check in time and so far this week has been going really well. There was a lot of excitement last weekend as I celebrated my birthday and my niece’s baptism. A lot of my time was spent with family and friends between Friday and Sunday. Sunday evening, […]

S1: Day 74 (74)

I’m very tired today. This week has been a good one and quite productive as I make notes and outlines for my September plans. Because it’s the end of summer, I tend to get easily filled up with my schedule. Fall has always been my most productive time. Always. I’m ready to truly gear up […]

S1: Day 67 (67)

It’s Thursday and it’s time to check in. I’ve got my whole writing plans for the month all figured out. By Sept 15th, I’ll be caught up to where I was wanting to be for this time of year. It’s very exciting…if I can make it happen. Wish me luck as I rip apart my […]

S1: Day 60 (60)

Today has been a hard day to get moving. I’ve been doing a lot of cleaning in my house, and while it is a wonderful feeling, it is exhausting and makes it hard for me to focus on the other aspects of life that I need to invest in. The cleaning thing kind of came […]

S1: Day 53 (53)

This week I’ve spent a lot of time organizing my writing goals. I’m going to continue to work on outlining. I think this is going to help a lot. Not much else to say. I have a number of emotions I need to sort through that are blocking me from thinking about work. Personal things, […]

S1: Day 46 (46)

I’ve got all of my writing life organized out for the week/weekend, and I’m ready to make a splash. There isn’t much to say beyond all of that. Things have been pretty low key this week, so I’ve been bouncing between feeling super productive and getting a lot planned, and just recovering from all of […]

S1: Day 39 (39)

This week has been a roller coaster so far. An emotional roller coaster. It’s been up and I’ve had some great victories that brought about a lot of joy. It’s been down and I’ve felt so discouraged I could scream. I’m trying very hard to not let either of these moments dictate how I behave. […]
