Trying to build this habit again

Sunday, January 2nd, 2022 07:06 am

Back to trying to build a posting habit here. I'm also working on trying to re-build a writing habit as well - adding at least 100 words a day to one of my many ongoing projects in the fanfiction space. I'm having to go easy on myself at present, giving myself small targets, because I don't want to re-strain my arms and give myself RSI again. Can't afford the time off from work, and I can't afford the interruptions to everything that it causes.

So today I added 166 words to one of my pieces (transforming notes into narrative). Let's see whether I can keep this up.

Other plans for the day include folding laundry, and maybe playing one of the games on the PS4. I'm currently actively avoiding playing Final Fantasy XIV, because while I have purchased a headset so I can participate in the raiding and dungeoneering content, I don't know whether it's going to work (turns out the headset is intended for a PS5, even though the shop had it advertised in the PS4 section of their website), and I don't know how to test it ahead of time. So, rather than stress myself out in twenty-seven different directions about that, I'm avoiding FFXIV and playing some of the other games I have on hand (yesterday I dug out World of Final Fantasy, and re-started that).

Current Mood: calm
