- Project: Inbetween
- Total word count: 158,315
- Today’s word count: 106
- Thoughts: Today was not a productive day. I feel like my will and ability to write is being locked up by the expectations set on me by CampNaNoWriMo. These expectations are self-imposed so I don’t know why I’m allowing it to get to me, but here we are.
- Tomorrow’s goal: Get back to writing. I have complete confidence that I can do it. The only thing getting in my way is my own thoughts.

- Today’s word count: 358
- Thoughts: I seem to be improving. I just hope the improvement keeps up so I can make some real progress this month.
- Tomorrow’ goal: More writing. I’m confident I can improve on today’s word count if I put my mind to it.
April 4
- Project: Inbetween
- Total word count: 158,988
- Today’s word count: 315
- Thoughts: Yeah. I just wasn’t able to improve upon yesterday’s word count. I don’t know what is wrong with me. I thought CampNaNoWriMo would give me this surging wave of energy that would carry me through at least a week or two of excellent word counts. I guess that could still happen, but I was expecting it at the start of the month. Obviously, I’m not hyped up enough about Camp.
- Tomorrow’s goal: More writing. Revising. Let’s see if I can get some more of draft 3 of The Dreams posted on Patreon!

- Tomorrow’s goal: More writing. More revising. I think I can do it!

- Tomorrow’s goal: Writing! Revising! Post a chapter! I can do it!
April 7
- Project: Inbetween
- Total word count: 160,120
- Today’s word count: 201
- Thoughts: Ugh. I thought today would go a lot better than it did. I just had too much going on and even after things settled down I found it hard to focus. I just kept going back and forth in my mind between thinking about my stories and thinking about everything else. Somehow I did manage to get a chapter posted so there’s that little bit of good work accomplished.
- Tomorrow’s goal: More writing. I’m positive I can accomplish more tomorrow!

- Thoughts: I went into today ready to have an amazing writing day. It didn’t happen. A migraine started instead. Yay…
- Tomorrow’s goal: Try to stop the migraine and get back to writing. If migraine continues, try not to be miserable.
