Afternoon, squiders! If you are doing Nano, you should be 10K at the end of today. How’s it going? As we discussed as a possibility last week, in the end I decided to do a time goal. 45 minutes a
Recording vs. Typing
I type, Squiders. When I write, I sit down at a computer, open a word processing document (or the blog window, I guess), and go to it. (Or get distracted by the Internet. Dang you, Internet, you double-edged sword.) But,
