okay, so: i’ve been grumpy about How Slowly Revision Have Been Going (coming up on.....almost a Year......), because it’s felt like i’ve been trapped in The Beginning This Entire Time.

however: i’ve input most of what i’ve done so far, and it’s uh. 78 pages?? which. isn’t an insignificant chunk. and i’ve finally cracked what my major hangup was re: the slowness (in text, not in life although life hasn’t been a mystery for a while lol) and i’m slowly unfucking that, so. i think i’m feeling pretty good, all things considered??

#text #personal #writing #in btw #driscoll #AND unfortunately momther's presence is a Major Words Inhibitor lol #i want to hang out with her when she's here and now we're both here at the same time lol #(she's been away this week i've gotten so much done)#AND ANOTHER THING:#since i've input these 78 pages i'll be saving that much time on the back end of this book?#like usually i do paper revisions all the way through and then input the revisions all the way through #but splitting it like this means 1. it's fresher in my head and 2. i won't have to do ALL the computer revisions at the end #(just the unfucking touchups lol)#(so far those have been bigger chunks of additions and a few minor line tweaks in other spots)#anyway i feel pretty good i think??#and it helps to see my new printed stack of what i Have Done So Far lol #i'll probably take typing to words date with friend tomorrow because i'm not getting much deep focus done during those dates #but all that's left is the mall and then i'm caught up to the marshall scene where i ended in....october.....#i mean i still have to fix the framing stuff in the intervening 50 some pages i've got so far but. i know what i'm doing now.#i think.#ANYWAY I FEEL GOOD ABOUT IT I'M GONNA GET ORGANIZED AND JOURNAL ABOUT IT PROBABLY
