I failed the Writathon by around six thousand words. However I started six days late, went missing in action for around a week mid challenge and finally wrote ten thousand words in twenty four hours, so I'm not unhappy with what I did. I'm happy with some of the lessons that I learned, including that I shouldn't try and write ten thousand words in twenty four hours.
Knitting has been coming on.
That is the cheap Aldi yarn. The packet contains the cheap circular needles and I was extremely unimpressed. The yarn caught on the needles where they meet the circular wire on every row. I ended up digging out an old 5mm needle and it was infinitely better. The yarn is knitting up fine, however.
I've spent the day mainly on writing stuff, but tomorrow I start cleaning. I have to. Bear is home on Friday and he's been very clear how he's particular about keeping his space clean. My house is a disaster. I don't want him to come home and feel that he has to start cleaning, especially as he has exams the first week that he goes back after Christmas. I'll share any triumphs. Really I need to turn out a load of cupboards and make records of what there is and what can be used up.
Writing stuff - I haven't posted anything on the Royal Road for the last few days, but I'll be getting back to that soon. Today's installment of The Guest is on my writing blog here. I posted an article last Wednesday, here, and I've got one cued up (or queued up, I'm never quite sure) for this Wednesday coming.
Hugs and good health to all.
