It should be amusing for me.
Technically.
But it’s kinda not.
So…
Let me explain.
I’ll tell you a bit about myself.
No, this is not an introduction. At least I hope not. If it seems like one, my apologies.
See, I’m a writer… I want to think I’m a decent one. I put a lot of effort into what I’m working on. But I have a teeny tiny problem.
I come up with these fantastic storylines, epics and terms that would be a fantastic and lastingly permanent mic drop. Yet as soon as I get out of the shower, the thought leaves. Just gone.
Poof.
I’m starting to debate recording audio of myself in the shower, but that would be weird.
I sing made up little songs, have “groundbreaking” realizations.
I verbally try to motivate myself to keep going.
I also have discussions with my cats as I cannot go anywhere without them as chaperones.
Currently…
I’m on a posting hiatus for my fanfic. Not because I stopped. Instead, I’m working on new content to upload on scheduled intervals. Without all of the stress. And that break also, by the by—covers the long stories only. The ones with chapters—massively massive chapters.
*coughs*NavigatingtheCurve*cough*
Why?
I spent over 20 hours editing for 1 story and did that over the course of two days with only 3 hours of sleep.
That sleep deprivation is not good for anyone.
Plus, I felt so much pressure to get out the next chapter. However, my new editing style means that I won’t be able to just write, poke it for 5 minutes and upload it.
This is technically day 10 or so… Gonna start writing the new content… tomorrow. I have a schedule, which is great. But, I will admit that I’ll be racing to get the writing part done, only so I have more time I can stretch out for editing.
If I’m completely done 3 months before September next year? I’m gonna spend that time resting up and/or scheduling my chapter uploads.

If you got this far, thank you.
Or sorry.
Not sure… which one would be more appropriate.
XXO
Note: I am sleep deprived, so still working on that sleep hygiene bit.
