Working

I am using every old trick in the book to coax the work out of me. Breaking it down into smaller, more do-able tasks. Rewarding myself for every bit of progress. Denying myself pleasures until I have achieved something concrete. Telling myself that it is a draft, that it just has to get done, that it will get done.

I have almost 54 hours until my deadline and about 4,000 words to write.

By the time I am done with this post, it will be about 100 words long.

So I just need to do this 40 more times. . . .

If it helps I have a book deadline - Wednesday at 1PM. Still have two and a half chapters to go and few bits and pieces remain outstanding. You are not alone! I'll be slogging it out right beside you! May the force be with both of us.
