Well well, it’s the fourth log already. Time seems to be going by fast and slow at the same time.

As you guys can see, I got a lot more writing done this week compared to last week. Then again, last week was pretty crappy for me with everything that was going on with my Nana. I’ll admit, most of the work I did since then has been my way of distracting myself. I honestly don’t know how I feel about that, but I guess the old saying it true: writers work better when they’re distressed.

I haven’t mentioned this, but I have a whiteboard with a list of all the articles I wanted to write this month and I only have one left. Like I said in another log, this month’s focus is to be me back in the habit of writing and I think it’s working. The trouble has been getting back into the habit of writing, which is really difficult when you’ve spent the last five months loafing around on a hiatus. I’ve found that getting out of my apartment has been the most effective and spending a few hours every night at the library worked the best. At least I didn’t have to buy a drink the stay there.

Got to be honest, I really, really wanted to have a drink this week. Not just because of my Nana, but also because work has…
