auroracloud | Apr. 9th, 2020

I'm not yet doing all that great yet at following the more reasonable schedule I set for myself, like going to bed early and not leaving writing and posting until I'm half asleep. But hey, at least thinking about it and stuff is a step in the right direction. On the upside, I slept okay last night and I wasn't particularly cranky today. I was awfully tired, though; in the evening, when I was done with everything else, I just kind of hid under the covers for an hour and a half. You wouldn't think just staying home is so exhausting, but when you're still making yourself plenty busy on most days, it turns out it is... I may need to actually take a bit of an Easter break, rather than just the regular two days of weekend. Anyway, nothing more profound today, as I need to go to bed!

Today's Writing

I didn't manage to make time for writing in the morning, so I've just written some in the evening. No new manuscript words this time, but I did some planning work around the novel: I went to the character files of the project and took a look at what I had on certain supporting characters, and changed quite a bit and added things. It seems my thoughts about some of these characters have developed a lot, and that's good!

Let me know if I missed you on the tally, or if you wrote but didn't check in yet! You can join in or drop out any time.

It's nearly Easter... Do you folks have time off during Easter? Since I currently make my own schedules, I don't have any particular days off, but I really feel I need more than just the regular two-day weekend I give myself, so I'm probably taking a regular Easter break from Friday to Monday, or at least Friday to Sunday. I've been really tense and tired this week, and I'd better take some time to relax and let go. I hope it also leads to more writing, but if it doesn't, I'll try not to stress myself about it.

Today's Writing

I managed to do my writing in the morning, and ended up with a few handwritten pages of a thing I wasn't planning for, but which started to grow in my mind from a shorter bit I wrote a couple of days ago. Well, it's words, I'm taking it!
