Another few thousand words today, after ditching some of what I wrote yesterday. It’s getting to the point where I’m now dreaming of character development and got a great idea for my antagonist, which I talked about earlier this week.

It’s been a while since I’ve been in such a good run of creativity and I’m loving it! Is it any good? Who cares? 😆 #AmWriting

Discovered the Late Bloomers podcast featuring Rich & Rox Pink discussing mental health, life with #ADHD and #Autism and a whole host of tangents (naturally). Plus, it's normally around half an hour so it's easily consumable. 😁👍 @adhd_love_

Up to over 12000 words as I continue pantsing my way through this latest WIP. Feeling good but I am terrified that I still have no solid idea where it’s going and I’m still getting very easily distracted.

Anyone else like this? #AmWriting

This may well be a long shot but if there are any #ActuallyAutistic folx in east Norfolk here who are free on 17th March, I shall be at the Gorleston library for an informal but welcoming cup of tea, coffee or whatever you fancy. I generally bring biscuits as well. If you fancy meeting with other neurodivergent people, why not pop along and say hello? From 3pm until 5ish (we sometimes ramble a bit) 😁

Hey guys, just a warning about an obvious scam account. I’ve already blocked and reported but here’s their message for you to block and report as well.
