Working on a fifth chapter now. The writing has been going fairly well the last couple of weeks. And I'm getting closer to connecting it to the existing material that I've already written. My protagonists have finally met each other, so I think it'll be easier to write for the time being. That setup was killing me. The fact that I've begun to really lean...

Where do I start? This time last year, I was convinced that I wouldn't be around to celebrate another birthday. My world was spiraling out of control, I had not just hit rock bottom, but I had crashed spectacularly into it. There's probably a Daniel shaped dent in it if you look close enough. But somehow, I pulled through. I've always just kept moving forward,...

You're an evil man, @fredhincanada but I think you knew that already... Our man Fred created this one, then nominated me as one of his victims.

1. Favorite fictional villainess?

Tell us about her. Well, at first I drew a complete blank. The only one who came to mind was Hela, but that might just be because I like Cate Blanchett. Thinking for a bit...

I'm not sure how to start this. The end of the year was rough. I don't think I ever realized how very draining the holidays are for me. I don't know, maybe I just assumed it was seasonal depression being added to the usual depression? The expectations of having to go to family events, the stress of having to deal with more people when you...

Been inactive again. Need time to recharge I guess. Sorry.

So, I've been doing a decent job of writing most days for the last couple of weeks. Not always a lot, but on occasion I have a good run. Not the point. I decided today to look at what I've got written at this point. I'm up to a good 30000+ words. The average words per page has that come out to around 80-100 pages...

I think I actually finished the beginning of my story. That might not mean much to some of you, but to others, you might know how much that means. It's just a small step, of course, in the grand scheme. But somehow, it was also a massive hurdle to get over. Still a lot of work to go, but there's a starting point now.

Is it weird that, as I'm sitting here writing (My new beginning is slowly getting there, about five pages at this point.) I kind of want some company? I wish I had someone here with me, not to talk to, not as a distraction. Just for the company. Normally I want absolute isolation to write. Hell, it's necessary most of the time. But for whatever...

Soooo... I've realized a couple things. First, I've been stressing about how to accomplish something in the story, only to realize that I don't have to. It's a thing that I can do on small ways throughout, instead of hitting you over the head with it. Second thing I realized? I need to completely rewrite the beginning, I just don't like it. Not that it's...

Just when I think I'm beginning to understand the meltdowns, and I'm able to stop them before they get too serious...

Usually I'm able to recognize that something is wrong. I'll feel the overstimulation, or whatever is starting to bother me, and I'll be able to work to stop it. But this fucking time.

No idea what happened. Just spent the last hour desperately trying...
