- Thoughts: Overall it was a productive writing day. I’m shocked I wrote as much as I did. I spent a good portion of the day in too much pain to do much of anything. Migraines are not fun. I managed to get in two good writing sessions though and that made all the difference.
- Tomorrow’s goal: More of the same. Maybe some revision of the next chapter?

- Thoughts: For some reason it doesn’t feel like I made much progress today even though I wrote over 500 words.
- Tomorrow’s goal: Write and revise. Hopefully I’ll have time to do both.

- Thoughts: I wish I had a real explanation for what happened today. The internet wasn’t working properly and that put me in a foul mood. After that I just could not motivate myself to sit at the computer.
- Tomorrow’s goal: More writing, of course!
You know, seeing you post weekly updates of your daily writing is inspiring. I think I want to start doing this on my own writing blog. Thanks!
