Til Death: 1132

Daily Goal: Met–hot diggity dog!

Actual progress to report! Who knew? This morning I finished what was, I think, my 3rd or 4th read through of the most recent draft of TD. I axed the bits I wasn’t keeping, and I cut about 20 pages to stick in later on when I build back up to them. Then I actually wrote! What a relief! It wasn’t fantastic, and at some points it was like pulling teeth, but I wrote! I think I’m finally back into this story enough to stick with it–for a while at least. Hopefully to the end. I’m taking a new tack with the plot here, so I”m not quite sure what all the ramifications are yet. But I’ve got enough to take me a ways. Time for bed.

The act of putting pen to paper encourages pause for thought, this in turn makes us think more deeply about life, which helps us regain our equilibrium. ~Norbet Platt

Don't tell me the moon is shining; show me the glint of light on broken glass. ~Anton Chekhov

If my doctor told me I had only six minutes to live, I wouldn't brood. I'd type a little faster. ~Isaac Asimov

If the artist does not fling himself, without reflecting, into his work, ... as the soldier flings himself into the enemy's trenches, and if, once in this crater, he does not work like a miner on whom the walls of his gallery have fallen in; if he contemplates difficulties instead of overcoming them one by one ... he is simply looking on at the suicide of his own talent. ~ Honore de Balzac
