Today was a slow day.

Okay, that is rubbish, I can tell you all the things I am doing wrong with this book and about one thing I am doing right.

I could also break down how my schedule got so far behind and what I needed to do to fix the problem.

Even if I want to spend the next few days writing, I have other obligations that feel like chains.

So what did I do today?

I tried to go back and read some of what I wrote because I was convinced it was horrible. But I liked it.

Even if I have a hard time writing, the act of writing and creating something from scratch is beautiful.

This process is what I love about writing, the struggle, and the triumph after working hard to make a cohesive story.
