I have to be efficient today. I want to be a lump on a log today. Terrible situation. Simply awful.

Someone: I like that thing you wrote.

Time for my monthly POV choice crisis. #writingcommunity which do you prefer to read for fantasy? 1st or 3rd?? I can never make up my mind and it’s such a big commitment 😫 #writing #writersofbluesky

Playing a lot of Diablo 😆
From horror to fantasy to contemporary, setting is important, and can often become its own character. What inspired the setting for your story? #FiFRevPit #writersky #writingcommunity #writersofbluesky

Is there any greater agony than having so much inspiration and motivation to write and instead being trapped pushing invoices at the day job?😩🥲

It was like riding out a fever but I think I finally ironed out the new plot. Killed some darlings and made a couple huge changes but I’m ready for rewrites- right in time for November writing challenges! And wouldn’t you know it I probably need about 50k new words. Serendipitous 😆

Doing some extensive plot surgery on my rewrite and I think my main villain is getting a total role reversal and falling back to misguided side antagonist.
That closes several plot holes and opens an entirely new one. Just need to figure out how to sew the new one up…
My brain hurts.

Sat down and went through my old draft for my rewrite project. Of the 78k words I harvested about 35k. Of that 35k I have no idea how much I will salvage or totally rewrite but, hey, it's a start!

Trying to focus nervous energy on my WIPs and got a couple big plot kinks worked out. I think I might be ready to start drafting on this project again soon.
