This morning I spent a brief moment looking at my review queue and I’m wondering if I can get through the whole thing before the end of the year. It stretches long and looms large, and part of that is definitely on me due to a severe amount of procrastination.

Well, maybe all of it is on me, but there have been things that have happened, I swear!

So it’s going to be an interesting little challenge where I tear my hair out for the next few weeks, though it might not be as bad as I am thinking it will be. After all, there are a good few that are in some state of progress and some that need to be edited, but there are a lot that need to be started. We’ll just have to see what happens.

Of course I say all this knowing full well that the chances of me getting more than say, six or ten done are incredibly slim, but who knows what will happen?

Anyway, I look at this queue and I see how it is large and I am wondering if I should just scrap most of it due to the length of time spent not doing anything. However, I still want to try. I still want to give it a go and see how far I get, and maybe I’ll be able to get back into a position where I’m getting things covered again.

Need to take advantage of the upswing rather than relax. Maybe not the best thing to do but I need to do what I need to do and I need to get on with the getting on where I can.

I wonder how it will affect the writing here. Probably won’t, but you know.

So now I need to get into preparation mode and I need to wear all the right gear and I need to move faster than I have ever moved, and we’ll see what comes of it all. I already know where I can tackle a bunch of the things I’ve covered, and maybe that will be a bit of a lazy writing, but we’ll see what happens. Maybe it will make for great writing. Maybe it will be both lazy and great, and maybe I am currently stalling for time so as to be able to stretch this out so I don’t have to worry about starting writing yet, or something.

Reviewing is something I enjoy and find frustrating. It’s a good way to help think about things but it also sometimes causes issues with actually writing. Sometimes I spend too much time thinking about what I’m trying to say when I should just say it and my writing comes out too clinical, I think, but I keep on trying and so this will just be an interesting time.

Well, maybe it won’t. It’s quite possible that it will be a boring time but there’s plenty of time for working that all out.

The time it took to write five-hundred words: 07:17:44

I was hoping to write something with a bit more drama in it and that didn’t come through.

Written at home.
