The writing assignment FOR the writing assignment has been splendid.
I now have 12 story devices I can pepper in to progress the plot and a character arc.
Mined from personal experience.
Should probably do some actual writing tomorrow though.

In the interests of procrastination & to take my mind of not accomplishing anything today, here is a list I compiled to remind myself of the process and the things that help me through & which might help you too. #amwriting #amnotwriting #amprocrastinating #writing

What do you mean I'm procrastinating preparing for teaching tonight?
No, I'm pretty sure right now is the proper time to clean several years' worth of fuzz out from between my keyboard keys. 😅
This is important work.

Just now-today-starting to feel human enough to get some work done. Except I can't work in these conditions, so dammit I have to unfuck my habitat.

I got encouragement and actionable feedback on my manuscript and now all I have to do this afternoon is get to work on it…
And instead I’m cleaning out my Tupperware.
Does this mean I’m a real writer now? 😂

In support of option 1: keeping the big picture in mind is important. And working on multiple research projects or collaborations at once is normal.
In support of option 2: the current dissertation chapter is really feeling like a slog.

Took a break from writing to grab a Christmas cactus from my local nursery. As if I was getting a lot of writing done to begin with … Ain’t she purty?

Now that the holidays are over, it's time to get back to the writing routine. Three heads-down sessions a day, five hundred words each. At fifteen hundred words a day, I should be able to finish my work-in-progress in... Oooooo...COFFEE!!

How does everyone keep their writing space clean and functional?
I know the answer is "Be an adult and clean up after yourself!" but there has got to be a better way!

It's crazy the random questions my brain will create when I'm about to start to write my romance.
"What's the opposite side of the world from New Jersey" is my latest.

I feel like a bit of an anomaly here in beautiful Ireland. The sun comes out, and I'm iced everything—iced coffee, ice in my water, ice in my soda. Yeah, I know it's 17C out, but that's like the surface of the sun to me.
