I was planning on working today when I woke up…and then I realized that today was Saturday. Saturday is supposed to be my off day. Like, completely off. And man…I was feeling burned the f*ck out.

I don’t anymore. I took the day off, and I am ready to freaking go.I’d figured in a day off, and I have it. I am READY to attack my novel again tomorrow. It makes me think about how, during a writing, two days in a row and one day off might be a good formula to make sure I don’t come unraveled. Cuz, I really DO like ripping through a draft like this. It feels natural to me. But it also leads to burnout, and we don’t want that.

I’d figured in a day off in my goals for this week, and I have it now. I am READY to attack my novel again tomorrow. It makes me think about how, during a writing, two days in a row and one day off might be a good formula to make sure I don’t come unraveled. Cuz, I really DO like ripping through a draft like this. It feels natural to me. But it also leads to burnout, and we don’t want that.

Six days until this stretch comes to an end: I should be at just over 300 pages at that point. Spitting distance from the finish line.

Anyway…it’s time for bed. I’ve been so stressed out lately, and not because of the book…not JUST the book…so much so that my jaw hurts where it meets my temples. The last time that happened, my mom was going into surgery for her sleep apnea. So, today was very necessary. There was a truly epic nap in the middle of it that made me feel human again. So, yay 😛

I’m ready for tomorrow. Got some good new music, too! Looooove you Spotify
