What I hate about my writing: Messing up my schedule.
The Good: Slow day at work and I finally caught up on all the sessions I missed last week.
The Bad: I typed for two hours today. That’s not even a marathon session for me, but it’s more than I’ve been used to doing and I’ve got the whole bleary-eye, shut-up-brain tiredness on. And I still have homework to do.
What I'm looking forward to: No more typing. I will admit it was not the most efficient use of my time, but it was gnawing at me to just do it.
What I'm not looking forward to: Figuring out how to track editing progress.
