Sorry folks, you are getting me in my authentic one o’clock-in-the-morning glory. I’m in my pajamas. This is what authenticity looks like.
PhD Update:
Good things. I turned in a draft of the research tool that I’ve been working on for the past year.
Memoir Update:
Good things. I practiced my pitch with an agent last weekend and got some good feedback. Going to pitch in person to 4 agents this upcoming weekend at the LA Writers Conference.
Vow of Poverty Update:
No good things to report. This month was an epic fail. AND I had to pay taxes and register my car. I don’t want to talk about it. 😭
Take Away:
I’m scared. I might need to shift my plan. These last 4 months have taught me that being on my own schedule and being self-disciplined enough to completely manage my own time and strictly limited funds is really fricken hard.
I’m not giving up. I’ll adjust if I need to, but for now I’m just recommitting and soldiering forward.
