Welp. No naps for the parents today, so I got maybe an hour of mad scribbling in? Still, all in all, I'm happy with my day. Up 1,172 words. 😁

My folks were kind enough to take a 2hr nap today, so I got in a lot more words than I'd hoped for! Then my dad helped me research a medical procedure for the story, so, wa-lah, 2302 words! 🤘🤓

Happy Friday, my peeps!
What an encouraging start! This is good, cuz I will NEED it. My folks are arriving tomorrow and will demand I NOT have my head buried in my laptop for 4-5 hrs of the day... 😆

I was able to pick up the pace again by finding a more interesting scene to write. 😆
How are you doing, fellow writers? Hang in there!

Day 3 – I love this quote about writing being an exploration.

ALRIGHT! Day three, and I skipped a scene, but I still got 2,285 words in today! That means I cracked the 5K mark. Hopefully I can fill the gap between scenes tomorrow... 😆

🦋 Where The Butterfly Once Flew
A house saturated in grief. A man drowning in his own memories. When the line between dreams and reality fractures, a modern gothic nightmare takes hold.
Raw. Gritty. Uncompromising.

I can't believe it has been eight years since I published my first little fable! 😲
I had no idea the incredible journey I was only beginning. I'm still writing (though much longer Book Club fiction) and hopefully will have something to offer you in the next year or two! 🤓

Wow! This is the earliest I've ever completed my yearly reading challenge! 🥳🥰
(probably because I've been busy avoiding my own writing 😆)
