We got a bunch of snow! One morning I woke up a little early and just enjoyed a cup of tea while I watched it fall. Then today we got freezing rain 😑
Stuff I did this week
- worked on my book’s plot for 4 hours, revamping from the midpoint through the climax to create better character arcs and eliminate a plot element that had pushed its way in but I wasn’t excited about writing
- went to Sarra Cannon’s livestream workshop on planning your writing year
- fleshed out my plan for writing the remainder of the book based on both The 12 Week Year and Sarra Cannon’s workshop
- met with a business advisor who helps small businesses contract with the government
- set up some consulting work in January
- hung out with a friend on Discord
- worked on my Q4 check-in and my 2022 personal review
- did some stretching and myofascial release on my back because my shoulders / neck / upper back have been sore 🤕
