Ok, so I’m not perfect and I’m owning that. I wanted to do some writing today, I really did but it was another day that was packed full with things to do. First, I had to vote in a by election, I didn’t quite get organised enough to do a postal vote so I went in and walked the short distance from my apartment to the polling booth, nothing out of the ordinary and I had time between my next outing and when I had to go…did I write? No. Do I feel guilty about that? No. I’m 66,000 words into my NaNoWriMo and I’ve started my second story. I’m…

Well this one is going to be really short. I have every intention of waking up early and writing but guess who went back to sleep and leisurely got up and did nothing before work? This writer. Yeah, I wanted to try and get some writing done after work but I had at date day with my man where we basically bar hopped and drunk our way through it. It was pretty fun, probably something I much needed because I’m always so stuck inside. So, while I had the intention to write, didn’t actually do it. Not even sorry. Words: 0 Distractions: The whole day.

Dun, dun, duuuun, today I actually started DC. I was going to last night but I got stuck reading and today…today I knuckled down and actually did and I already feel different about this version of it. Perhaps aging the story up was for the better, because Travis seems to be less whiny and less like a jerk…but I can’t actually confirm that yet because I’m not very far in and I’m sure he’ll do something that will make me facepalm and want to kick him out of his own story. It’s also fun to play with Lucy’s cameo because like any series I can’t exactly leave my main character…

Words today are hard and mostly because I had a full day at my retail job that involved a lot of actual heavy lifting and to top it off it’s a little warm. I love the warmth, I dislike having to work while it’s warm in a full uniform. Give me shorts and muscle tanks any day and I’ll be a happy lady. I used to be so good at wording when I was exhausted, in fact, my peak hours of writing used to be after Midnight and I’d do my best essays and what not when I was not sleeping. I prided myself on being a night owl…that was…

Today I made a come back, after not writing in my NaNo for four days it was glorious to have my fingers gliding over the keys once again. I can’t tell you how relieving it actually is to feel the flutter of my fingers hitting the keys and while not a lot of my words were spelled right I did manage to get in a solid writing session between folding clothes, attempting to go to the gym, washing sheets and getting to an appointment, not to mention having my cousin and his lovely girlfriend in town. I went out for dinner and it was such a wonderful night. It makes…

Today I’ve done the look over with my essay and wrote up the hardest part: The Dreaded Reference List. Literature uses the MLA system and I’m so used to the Harvard system so I had to do a few double takes with it. But freedom came and I’m done with uni for the semester which also means I can continue on with my NaNoWriMo journey and these entries can be much more fun. I normally would have jumped straight back into writing but it’s been pretty intense with this essay of late and all I wanted to do was binge on some TV shows, I’d started Season 5 of Arrow…

I had a full day at work today and got up early to actually do my essay. I managed to get out the bulk of my writing before work and even took my laptop with me to work so that I could try and get something done, I tried to get some work done during my break, but it was too busy. I did get home and managed to finish my essay and I was done for the night! I rewarded myself by spending the night hanging out with my boyfriend and it was actually nice to not have the stress of this essay in the back of my mind.…

No writing today, I was focusing on my essay and getting somewhere, I’m pretty sure the next few days there are going to be a lot of short updates where I haven’t done much writing but my essay. Not even sorry, but I wanted to be done with this by now. It’s tough and I’m pretty much doubting everything I’m writing because essays are hard for me to do. A short and sweet update that’s all I’ve got today. Sometimes these might be big, sometimes these might be short but my whole idea behind this is to show just how fickle my writing can be and just how much I…
