And I was doing pretty well for about the first week and a half where every morning just a very reasonable goal, writing for about 30 minutes, about three pages a day. It felt great. And then, of course, life stuff happened that made it so that I was working long days trying to figure out some personal stuff. One of my pets was sick, had a big, like financial thing I had to deal with

But then again, doesn't the font matter and think I'm at a twelve font? Maybe? I don't know. I'd have to look. But anyway, as far as your writing goal and your strategy, you know, we all fall short at some point. And the most important thing is to get back up. I totally empathize with you going, oh, my gosh. My dog got sick and this happened and that happened

And I know that that's something that I will have to continue to work on over the years because my writing and that time working on it is just as important as the time that I give to anyone else and I'm there to support them. So it's a very good reminder. Thank you. And as far as the three pages in 30 minutes, I am able to do that sometimes surprisingly

But then again, I'm also playing because I want to write the important scenes. So we'll see right now I'm just writing some of it's good. And some of it's just, eh. But we shall see where it goes. And I'm excited. 55 is not bad. There is more to go, so I don't know how many words I will end up with. Finally, before I can even start editing and getting a half a draft
