sunfright: Logan Marshall-Green with the text  "fuck". (etoile)





I've reached the 25k mark with my novel.

25.000 words. That's more than I've ever written before for any one story. And I've been really, really fast about it, too, I checked today, for various reasons, when I began writing this fic and if Plurk is correct, I began 24th or 25th of February. That's 25.000 words in 19 days.

I'll just let that sink in, because I'm not sure I can even compute that.

And I plan to write the last half of it in about just as many days. Wish me luck, haha.

I had to go pick up new meds today, because I was out of one of the types I take. When I woke up, I genuinely felt I wouldn't ever manage to get out the door, but a couple of sprints and two poems later, plus getting dressed and having breakfast, made me feel slightly more human and I actually did go downtown to get my medicine. Victory!

Now I'm home. My GF is picking up dinner things on her way home, so I actually have no other obligations today except writing. That is such a luxury. I intend to reach my goal of finishing the month of June a bit earlier than I finished my writing yesterday, around 9 pm. If I can finish my writing before dinner time, that would be ideal, but before 8 pm would be okay, too. I'd just really like to be able to turn off my computer at eight and relax until bedtime.

I'm sleeping okay-ish these days; I wake up and need to go to the bathroom once or twice during the night, but no staying up and using the computer or stuff. That's a major improvement from how things were a month ago. This way, I also get up really early and that's nice, having a whole, undisturbed day to do my thing.

Also just trying to collect spoons enough to go shopping with my mom and dad on Friday and have tea afterwards. March is honestly a bit crazy with appointments and such. It's that stupid birthday thingy. I just wanna sleep right through it.
