So I’ve been writing every day for four days now, aiming for a minimum of a thousand words a day. It must be working, because I’ve got 5,156 new words so far. That’s a good start ( Read more... )

As some of you know, I’m pretending to be a writer. Maybe some day, I’ll actually do one of my ideas justice by writing it all down.
