Well, my goal for this week was to write four chapters, one a day between Tuesday and now. I have a chapter-length piece of prose written yesterday. It doesn't have a solid ending so I can't call it "done", but that is in part because I'm waiting to find the best breaking point between it and what I write today... something I can't do when I'm not writing ahead.
Those two chapters are set for Monday and Wednesday of next week, so if I can get a reasonably strong finish to the week, I'll end up two chapters ahead for next week and I'm going to do the same thing next week, probably better since I don't anticipate as much time and attention to be eaten up by con stuff. I can't really muster much optimism that things will be resolved by then, but if it's not, then it's likely nothing will have changed, either.
The State of the Me
Doing okay. I have a headache and some slight-to-medium brain fog, all of which may very well be stress related.
Plans For Today
I'm going to spend the morning in relaxation mode. Might even get off the computer/internet entirely for a few hours, just go off and think about superheroes and vampires and elves and mad science for a while, read a bit, come back in the afternoon and write.
