Hey folks, I got 519 words written this afternoon as well as a short vid to YouTube.

Not anywhere near as much as I’d have liked. I really struggled to get going today. I’ve been working on a Penal Earth spin off story, but I’m getting frustrated with world building details. So I’m thinking I need to get more details written down, and some sketches done so I’ve got something set in stone. The details I need I can put down by doing a map of the area the Penal Earth stories (so far) take place in. So tomorrow I’m going to start sketching.

Tomorrow is going to be a busy day. My Dad and I have a few bits and pieces to do around the house and I’ve got a little shopping to do. So I’ll likely be working in the afternoon. I’m going to do that sketch and then I’m going to start putting my notes into Black Blood and work on getting this draft done by the end of the month.

Despite not getting as much done as I’d have liked I’ve had a good day. Went for a walk with a friend, which reminded me of how out of shape I am! but it was good hanging out with her and getting out in the fresh air. I am missing my friends, and it was good to see one. We did do it respecting social distancing, but you know what, if we’re all sensible and follow the guidelines we’ll be able to start hanging out with each other a lot more.

Right, I’m going to go and get the dishes done! Then I’m going to read for a little while. I’ve left intersections with friends who I know will be up early tomorrow to blow my phone up until I’m not just awake, but out of bed!
