Just another update on my life and my writing…<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I feel really swamped.\u00a0 There are only like 20 school days left, and it feels like I’m headed on a collision course for the end of this semester at 120 mph.\u00a0 That means I’m running out of time to finish this novel…and running out quickly.<\/p>\n
Probably the biggest thing on my mind right now is this paper for a very, very difficult class.\u00a0 I’ve done my research, found a few quotes, and I know what I want to say now…but I don’t have a lot of time to get it in.\u00a0 Basically, I’ve got three hours tomorrow in which to write it…but I also need to read all the submissions for English 318…and do my Arabic homework…<\/p>\n
I won’t bore you with all the details.\u00a0 Just sitting here, I’m sure I could list off a dozen or more urgent things I need to do.\u00a0 All<\/em> of it is getting in the way of my goal to finish this novel on time–and I’m definitely <\/em>going to do that!<\/p>\n Today, I wanted to finish the chapter I’ve been writing…but I ran out of time.\u00a0 In fact, this whole week I’ve wanted to move this story along, but I haven’t been able to.\u00a0 It’s really annoying.<\/p>\n I tried the other day to wake up at 6 am and write then, and it actually worked fairly well.\u00a0 Got 500 words in before I had work.\u00a0 It was nice.\u00a0 I’m going to try that again for tomorrow.\u00a0 Which means that this is the end of this blog post.\u00a0 Goodnight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Just another update on my life and my writing…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[],"tags":[42,4],"class_list":["post-194","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","tag-frustrations","tag-the-lost-colony","entry"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7iXK-38","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/194","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=194"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/194\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=194"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=194"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.onelowerlight.com\/writing\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=194"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
