I was in so much pain earlier I laid on the ground. I don't know what I thought it was going to do, but it didn't do whatever I thought it would do.

I feel so bad. I'm achy, my head hurts, my nose is runny.
I better not have covid. I have better things to do.

For my second book, I left a friend read the rough draft. Later she sent me a message saying:
I don't think you understand how much I love it.

Honestly, I need to write more. I keep going long stretches without writing anything. I finished a book in 6 months. I know that's not a long time, but what could I do if I actually focused?

In January, I'm going to the Book Warehouse and will do some damage. I saw a woman get 15 books for $86. Mind you they were hardcover.

James fully removed his shirt, and inspected his body as closely as he inspected his face. He was a large man, who’d come to the navy muscular and full of life. There was no sign of that man now.

So, my daily bag is a tote bag. Cutest thing. It's got Arthur's and DW's library cards on it. Inside are 3 pouches. A girls girl pouch, a medical pouch, and a pen pouch.
And yet I somehow feel I need another one.

Hook became captain of the Jolly Roger because he and the crew decided to mutiny. Why did they mutiny? Because the first captain decided people were cargo.
I think that sums it up.

Greetings, #NovemberWorldbuilders. Tell me about the ethics of your MC or any character who is important in your world's lore. Are they morally good? Morally grey? Do they have a belief contrary to what others around them believe in? Are there any acts they refuse to do?

I called my husband the other day to write down an idea I had because I was driving and it idea popped into my head.
Writers, do you ever fear running out of story ideas? This is one fear I don’t have #writingq #WritingCommunity

I have no idea who long I've been writing for. I'm going to take that as a sign to take a break.

Since draft 2 is driving me crazy, I'm jumping back to Hook. Got some good ideas flowing that need to be written down.

I'm at the stage in my life where new comforters are exciting.
On another note, I bought the best comforter from HomeGoods. I was both comfy AND cozy last night.

I know I added a new character because it made sense, but right now I'm frustrated with trying to find ways to weave her in. I think I'm just upset with having to think too hard.
Maybe I need to pivot to something else and put draft 2 to the side.

I keep taking breaks from writing just to find myself stopping to write more.

And I'm back writing. I've got some good words in, and I'm hoping to get in more today. I have to remember I added in a new character. She's making things a bit odd, as I have to figure out where I should and shouldn't use her.

The problem with adding in a new character is finding ways to incorporate them. I just had to rework a scene because I forgot my MC has a bodyguard.
