Decided that I'm not allowed to buy any new #books (minus those I have on order) until I've made my way through at least 2/3 of my current #TBR pile.
The good of this is that I wrote an essay on Wednesday morning upon waking too early, and today I've added some notes.

Really quite done with waking up at 5am, already ranting before I'm fully aware.

What do I have to do to get a full night of restful sleep?

[please this is rhetorical, I already do a lot of things to help my sleep situation -- unless you've got something for not waking up prematurely, I don't want to hear it]

I gushed about how excited I am to read a book on my TBR in my dream. Even when I'm asleep I want to read everything
@Rori I just checked -- you can choose whether you see notifications for boosts, new followers, fav's, and mentions.
I think I'm going to aim for 1K words/day in December in an effort to wrap this novel up. For now, I need to get back to it, as I'm in the middle of a scene and don't want to lose steam on it. #amwriting
Hell yeah I just won #nanowrimo
It also struck earlier than I expected (around 40K, when I expect the book to be 75-85K), which is worrisome. I hope it's due to my lack of experience with the format.
I want to finish the book by the end of the year, so even after #nanowrimo is over, I'll still be writing at a faster pace than I'm accustomed to. A week ago I was hit with the feeling that this story is the worst idea I've ever written, which is fine because that happens in every project, but I have no idea how long that will last for me in a novel -- I can make a reasonable guess with comics and drawings, but this is my first prose book... #amwriting

Agh, I'm a short story's length away from winning #nanowrimo and it somehow feels like too much! Hah.

Yesterday I realized how to intertwine the two major threads in my book, and I'm delighted about that. Apparently I had been foreshadowing the solution for myself without noticing, which I'm pretty sure is the sneakiest thing my brain has done to me in a project. I still have to write it though... #amwriting
