Good Morning, 25th of June 2025

Howdy folks, how are we all doing today?

Yesterday I wrote 3420 words, and edited 1880 on the mech story in around three and a half hours. A lot of progress was made, but I think there’s a few bits I can add to which’ll strengthen the story. I’ll do that on the next draft though. I’m very near the end of this read through. If I pull my finger out it should be done by the end of the month.

Today, I don’t know if I’ll repeat yesterday’s numbers. I’ve woken up with a stiff right shoulder which is rather uncomfortable, not quite painful, just uncomfortable. So I don’t know how long I’ll be able to sit at my desk. But we’ll see.

I haven’t added to the Penal Earth story I’ve been working on, simply because my brain was mush yesterday after working on Mech. I am close to wrapping it up, but need to get stuck into when I’ve a decent chunk of time to bring the ending home. Twenty minutes here, thirty there, is all good and well but I think I’d like to nail the ending on this draft so I don’t have to fret over it when I work on the next draft. I feel like I’m struggling with writing endings at the moment, but I’m pretty sure how I want to play the ending out of this story. I know what happens to the protagonist, just not the path to get him home.

That’s absolutely not helping, Raven

Right, I’m gonna wrap this here and get cracking on mech. I’m hungry but I want to get a few words down before I stop for food.

Have an awesome day, folks!
