It’s so nice to write on a Friday. Day 17, and I have 20k. I’m behind by about 8k, but I’m still very optimistic. Why?

On day 28 last year, I was at 23k. And I still won.

On day 23 in 2014, I was at 20k. And I still won.

So I’m actually ahead of where I was in ’14 and ’16. Which is good, those years were a bit rough. I’ve got a lot to do this weekend to catch up, but I’m optimistic. I still have a great outline, and am happy with the scenes I’m writing. Just gotta keep on keepin on.

And it only takes a moment
To step outside and let the rain
Kiss your pain away
And surrender it to the sun
