The Joy of an Entire Day Ahead of You

Ah. Here I am at 8 in the morning on a Saturday, wrapped in my robe, sipping coffee. I have nothing on the list to do but grocery shop. Such a rare thing to have an open day like this. Makes me so relaxed and happy. So I will write, write, write.

I'm doing a "don't look down" draft right now, but I think I'll go over the last few chapters to make sure I'm filling it out enough so that my pacing looks right. Easier to change things up front than to decide there's something massively wrong with it after three drafts. Then I'll pound out another fifty pages or so.

When I was in highschool I used to think that having to do an eight page term paper was some sort of hellish punishment. lol. And now I can whip out 400 page books in a couple months or so. Puts page count in a whole different perspective!

Anyway, I'm excited to make good progress today. It makes me so happy!
