Midnight Musings

Back again, once more searching for accountability.

By March 2nd/9th (depending on group members' schedules): I will submit my entire novel manuscript to my writing group and writing partners for review.

By March 23rd: I will submit my entire academic manuscript to my writing group and writing partners for review.

Every day between now and these two deadlines: I will get off my damn ass (if I'm using my stand-up desk!) or get onto it (if I'm coffee-shopping, coffee-porching, or sitting on my couch) and WRITE. If that means researching, I'm going to be doing it. If that means revising, I'm going to be doing it. If that means creating prose from scratch, I'm going to be doing it. If that means I'm up, as I am now, at 1 a.m. before a 7 a.m. class, so be it.

Enough is enough. I'm sick of myself not finishing these projects. I'm sick of the damn projects.

Wait, that's not true. I'm still in love with the projects.

Score one for me! Maybe this really IS possible.

  1. If I give you a chapter draft towards the end of February, will you have time to read it? :)
