Good news! I have written some words. They are terrible. Right now my goal is terrible words, so this is excellent progress. What I have found in my previous novel writing attempts is that I have to get over my need for speed. What I want is to crank out a perfect draft in a couple of weeks, and my brain is convinced I could do it. Every once in a while I have a perfect writing day where the words come straight from the muses themselves and I can get 3000 words down in two hours and it will be an absolute masterpiece. This happens incredibly rarely, and yet I somehow assume I can force it out at will. Ridiculous.
hooray i am a terrible writer
:))))))
