Tuesday check-in

[forthwritten]

How do Tuesdays work for people?

Anyway - what have you done recently that you're pleased with? What new problem are you bashing your head against? What are your aims for the week ahead? Did you do anything fun over the weekend, or were you, like me, in chapter lockdown mode in preparation for meeting your supervisor? I note that my rats were rather annoyed at being neglected in favour of my thesis and promptly ate part of Illness As Metaphor because I foolishly left it on top of their cage.

well, i've written a few thousand words over the last week, as i've got a meeting with my supervisor on friday and i've got to send her stuff beforehand. although i'm not very happy with what came out at all, it was literally a case of staring at the screen for hours, giving up, then coming back to it over and over and just having to force the words out. usually meeting with my supervisor is really positive though, in helping me focus and get inspiration and remind myself why i'm doing this... fingers crossed this is what will happen this time too!

*crosses fingers for you* I'm so sorry the writing has been so hard!

thank you! yeah, my ability to write tends to fluctuate along with my general mood.
