Hey Folks,
Likely to be a limited writing day today again, kind of a semi day off. I plan to write, but I’ll let other things take precedence.
What does that mean? I want to write, and I will write, but I won’t worry about writing. If/when I get to it, good. No stress.
Today, and Writing
Rolled out at 3, finally to the novel at 5:30.
I wrote off and on over about four hours. In four or five small sessions, I hit around 1200 words. Breakfast etc. in the midst of all that.
Then I took my grandson to work. Came home, then did some more running around to buy screen for the screen door, dog and cat food, etc.
Came back and worked on my 4-Runner for a little while, then watched some TV with my girl. Also made another wild-eyed, clumsy, stiff-fingered attempt at my guitars (the Martin and an f-hole tenor Britton guitar, built by my maternal uncle, Roy Britton).
Checked out a few hollow-body electrics online too. (grin) I had a beautiful Ibanez stolen out from under me when I was a kid of about 20.
Finally decided around 1:45 I should get back to the novel. Moved to the outside desk and finally, finally, it started raining. Go figure.
Moved to the Hovel. Now to the novel again around 2:15.
A good session combined with some cycling. Back tomorrow.
