Reminding myself

Exploding Cats are not writing. They are an occasional perk of writing regularly.
I chose to write to The First Line prompt not with the intention of performing a writing miracle during the middle of the work week, but with the intention of continuing forward motion. If I miss deadline but finish a story, it will sell elsewhere (after their issue comes out).
I am not going to perform heroics, bludgeoning my way through midweek brain death on sheer will.
The point of this was to break those habits of thought.

*reads all that*

Yup. That’s all true. Good.

I’ve two hundred words. I will not say things like ‘paltry sum’. I will instead go add to them.

Good boy.

Edit: More words. Good boy. I get ice cream.
