Just a note that the Write Every Day entries aren't crossposting to LJ anymore, because of the issue that always comes up at some point, the posts getting too large because of the way LJ codes Dreamwidth username tags. Nobody's been checking in here, so I'm not bothering to try a workaround - in case someone does still want to join, just go to the ( Read more... )

Today I noticed again how much better it is for me to have some crafts on hand when I write. Usually some piece of crochet that I can work without too much attention, something with a repetitive enough pattern. When I get stuck or need to mull on something, it's so good for me to have something for my hands to do. It can help me so much in thinking ( Read more... )

The first day of my mini-break, and I think I definitely need it, I've been soooo tired today. But I managed to have a nice long walk outdoors. And I finally took out the time to take out my journal, the pen-and-paper one, which I hadn't got around to writing for quite a while, and definitely not since all this *gestures at the world* started. It ( Read more... )

It's nearly Easter... Do you folks have time off during Easter? Since I currently make my own schedules, I don't have any particular days off, but I really feel I need more than just the regular two-day weekend I give myself, so I'm probably taking a regular Easter break from Friday to Monday, or at least Friday to Sunday. I've been really tense ( Read more... )

I'm not yet doing all that great yet at following the more reasonable schedule I set for myself, like going to bed early and not leaving writing and posting until I'm half asleep. But hey, at least thinking about it and stuff is a step in the right direction. On the upside, I slept okay last night and I wasn't particularly cranky today. I was ( Read more... )

Ugh, I've been terribly tired all day. Probably because I woke up wayyyy too early and took ages to fall asleep, then the alarm went off just as I was sleeping comfortably. As a result it's been a bit hard to get things done, and I ended up getting to writing way too late again, and uninspired. I need to figure out a way to set a writing routine ( Read more... )

Today's kind of gotten away with me, but I suppose weekends can do that. I meant to do more writing, and I really need to get around to some non-WED posting in my journal again, but might be too tired for that tonight. I generally meant to do more things, but I was rather tired. On the other hand, I did a fair amount of walking again, I did grocery ( Read more... )

Ah, I got proper sleep last night, which was nice. And the weather was nice, so I had a good long walk of about 1.5 hours. Otherwise I've spent way too much time looking at embroidery patterns online, so I think I need to just order some more threads already. On the upside, all that actually ended up indirectly helping my writing, which is not ( Read more... )

Today rather got away with me, with various things to do, so this post is again later than I thought it would be and I'm half asleep at the keyboard... So if I write any nonsense or forgot or mistyped someone's name, I apologize, and feel free to notify me about any errors ( Read more... )
