I finished a chapter recently for Take Me Home but I don't know if I'm completely happy with it so I haven't posted it yet. I think I might look at it again tonight and see if I am satisfied. I have another chapter started. I think I'm going to end it on 40 chapters to make it even. I hate odd numbers lol

You're so close! I think it's good to hang on to things until you're totally satisfied (or the last possible second to keep it, whatever comes first, lol). Good luck with the end of the story!

I said this on Twitter already, but I have been officially approved for Disability so they are going to start sending me checks in August and have sent me back pay since March of 2020 so…yay! Good news for once. Plus mom is back home! Double yay!

Yay! That's awesome that you have back pay too! I'm glad it all went through without a hitch! (Other than the long time waiting, of course.)

I think you should probably celebrate with a good book and a banana, lol.

(I also cannot miss a banana day and life just feels off without them. Like Julie, I buy green because while I prefer ripe, I'd rather the last banana is ripe rather than brown because I can't stand brown bananas unless they're in banana bread.)

I had my first really productive writing session of the month early this morning (before I went to bed LOL).  I wrote 2,205 words!  It's my first time hitting 4-digits in one sitting all month.  I'm sure it helps that I finally got to the exciting climax of my chapter.  Anyway, I finished Chapter 24 - finally!  It's just shy of 7,000 words.  I also hit 100,000 words in the story earlier this week, which is always a milestone.  Hopefully this means I'm back on track.

I hope things are going well for the rest of you!

Woo! That's awesome that you got over 2000 in one sitting! And 100,000 words in the story! And finished Chapter 24! You're on a roll! Hopefully today is super productive too!

Writing is going okay? I finished a chapter over the weekend, but not from the story I'm supposed to be working on, lol. I was really feeling some PDemon vibes, so I just went with it. I think that might be part of why I'm in my slump. I've been trying to focus on one thing, even if it's not interesting at the moment. And the parts of this one that are interesting are one-liners and not even full scenes. I blame my slump on Brian for his perfectly realistic, but boring life motivations, lol. I think this is a story where it would help motivate me to just post it so someone else could laugh at my jokes, but I am hesitant to send it out without a chapter buffer with the way it's been going. Whereas something like PDemons is really intrinsically motivating for me. I honestly probably feel the same way about Snail, which is so silly because it's a short story that isn't done but has no business being posted in pieces, lol.

So, writing? I guess, lol.
