A whole lotta nuthin. Mostly re-writing my schedule and chopping off some tasks whilst barely finishing others. There’s still a stack of overdue tasks, but at least it’s not as big as before.

I’ve been working on the issues with A Woman’s Conquest in my head, but it’s hard to find the energy to anything useful with it. A lot of the time—if there’s anything going on in my at all this week—I’m mulling over some worries I have about my work. Though I’m only part-time at both of my jobs, I can’t help but often prioritise thinking about them. I know longer work the extra unpaid hours—out of sheer fear and anxiety—but I can’t help trying to better myself slowly outside of work, because sometimes I feel so inadequate and slow during my work hours. It’s something that I’m working on.

I’m looking forward to my “schedule” returning to normal. Because there’s a lot of work to do with A Woman’s Conquest, and I don’t want it to be another project I forget about. This one has some extra special elements to me. All of my writing holds something dear to me, but this has extra paths I’ve explored that I was too hesitant to do before. It has a lot to do with my cultural identity. And so I’m excited for that.
