Write Every Day, June Day #17

[auroracloud]

I'm back home now, and promptly crashed as soon as I got here. I was more tired than I'd realized, though I had been pretty darn sleepy all day today. It's probably mainly because I've slept kind of poorly at least for the past week or so - besides going to bed too late on some days, I've also kept waking up too early, perhaps because the mornings get light so early now. I do wear a sleep mask when it's light, but it tends to come off at some point. Also, if I put it on when I went to sleep, it'd probably be off by the time it's actually light, so I tend to just put it on when I first wake up from the light. Maybe the very early dawn now is messing up my sleep patterns. Anyway, I just took at least two hours to be able to even drag myself out of bed.


Today's Writing

I added some bits to the short story again in the afternoon, amounting to a little over 100 words. Though since I haven't really figured out what it's about (I had an idea when I started, but I think it's about something else, and I don't know what yet), I felt like I wanted to write something else, but I'm just soooo tired. I started another Cottoncandy ficlet, in a new fandom, but I managed as many as 48 words, and my creative brain ran out of power mid-sentence. So I think that's it for today. I did listen to some podcasts that might sorta count towards novel research in a very broad and general way.

And I looked at my research books and thought for a second or so about picking one up, but I don't think that counts.

How about you all?

[how did the middle of the month happen again ]

[casually writing on phone working a lot better for me suddenly, me and the desktop keep fighting. end up doing art. but team phone got 1.2k words out today ]

I don't know! That was what I was wondering, too, as I adjusted how much of the tally is inside the cut - how did we get past the mid-month mark already?

Yay for casually writing on phone working better for you! Sometimes it really helps to try something different, whether that's writing by hand, writing in a different place than usual, writing on your phone or whatever. Maybe it takes some of the pressure off, or helps your brain think a bit differently.
