What is wrong with me?
I have one week before leaving on vacation. (BTW, likely no posts the next couple weeks because of that. I SHALL RETURN, though.)
One week. And I’m working on a project with my daughter. We both want to work on it during vacation, but I desperately need to finish the project I’m on before turning to that one. Should be easy enough, right?
Yeah. I’ve got one week to write 50,000 words.
It’s doable. I’ve done it before.
But… it’s a lot of work. Wow is it a lot of work. I write at about 2,000 words an hour on average, which means I need to be writing for 25 hours this week.
While also working a day job.
Oh, and helping my family prep to leave for vacation.
What is wrong with me?
It’d be far easier to just shelve this one project for the time we’re gone, and then return to it once we’re back.
But no, not me!
Writers aren’t always the smartest, are we?
I have no words of wisdom today. I need to get back to my work in progress.
Wish me luck!
