Word Count and Sleeping
Feb. 18th, 2018 02:17 amI thought about exercising today but I finally just decided to let today be a recovery day. I did sleep about eleven hours last night and I know my body needed to shut down like that. This week was hella crazy and there was so much good in it but there was just also a lot in general and I was worn out. I probably should be in bed already but I was just so enjoying my lazy day and working on my writing things that I didn’t want to go to sleep. I still kind of don’t want to sleep. I don’t actually feel all that tired which I suppose isn’t surprising considering just how late I slept today. But even though I don’t feel “sleepy,” I have a feeling that I’ll be able to sleep just fine as soon as I get into bed and laid down. It’s just been too many days of excitement for me to believe otherwise. I’m pretty sure my body is still recovering even if last night went a long way towards healing. I also didn't walk more than a 1,000 steps over the course of the day.
I am excited to say that I was able to get to just over 1,700 words in my story so hopefully even after editing I’ll still have at least 1,500 words. I’ll start the editing process tomorrow probably so I can get the story posted before the end of the month which is only like ten days away now. How it is that we’re like 49 days into the year already? I don’t even know how that’s a thing, but there you have it.
I was also able to write and post the review for the NetGalley book I read while I was traveling back from California. I started reading the sequel last night and so far, I’m really enjoying it. I think I like it better than the first one. I was lukewarm about the first one, but I’m pretty into this one and I think I’m about halfway through it.
I’m looking over my word goals for the month and I’m going to have to average close to 800 words a day for the remainder of the month if I’m going to meet my monthly goal, but I’m hopeful that I’ll make it. I’ve been getting pretty good numbers the last few days.
Ugh, well I better go to bed.
