Last night was productive, on Legion 2. 5.3K.
My daily objective, required six days a week and unmet until yesterday, is 2,000 words. This adds up to about 100K every two months, or six books a year. And 2K isn't a hard minimum.
I don't write big-L Literature. I write pulp; bang-bang and exploding shit. Yes, I try to write *good* pulp, but nobody reads this stuff for the wordcraft - they read it for the action, which I know I can do. I just have to get over my insecurity and my OCD to put words down.
Not making what I feel I should be making. Not where I always thought I'd be at 35. The solution to this is to work. I have leads on other writing work.
In unrelated, I have handshake plans to move back to Boston June 1st. Only a handshake on a room, and I'd feel a LOT more comfortable if I could have more than that (especially since I have a cat, a cat who is going to have a bad enough time on the plane without the nightmare of having nowhere to go on arrival), but... it's what I have.
