Howdy folks, how are we doing today?

I’m planning a writing/beta reading/get shit done day. I’ve got lots of little bits and pieces to get cracking with, general chores etc. I want to get back on track with the beta reading I’ve been doing, I also need to get some cooking words edited!

Horrified was good at the weekend, but going from that straight into four days straight at work hasn’t left me with much time to decompress. (just realised I worked the three days leading up to it too!).

I have made some progress writing this week, but not much. Not as much as I’d have liked anyway. Shorter shifts at work meant shorter breaks, which I think in future I’ll just take a notebook and work on a short story instead of editing. With a laptop by the time it’s loaded up and I’ve eaten it’s normally not worth trying to get stuck into a scene to work on. The way I edit is either a scene or a chapter at a time. If I’m writing something then I can just get cracking. I normally know what I’m going to write next so I can write with one hand, eat/drink with the other and let my brain roll.

Like each con I’ve ever been too, Horrified fired up the desire to get writing and get my work out there. I’ve spent a fair bit of time this week letting my brain process this desire and in the next week I’m going to try and reach out to some reviewers to see if they’d be willing to review my published books. Getting past the anxiety to do that is another matter, but I’m going to push to overcome it.

Right, I’ve rambled long enough. I’m going to get some editing done. Maybe about an hour and then some beta reading before a little more writing or editing.

I hope you all have an awesome day, folks.
