17th May 2021 - Deep work session #5 (3 hours)

The writing is getting tough. I think I’ve done much of the easy stuff, and now I have to go deeper and start really challenging myself to write better. 

I’m thinking about:

  • the narrative
  • the style
  • what it is that I’m really trying to say
  • is it entertaining enough? 
  • how I take my journal entries and turn them into a story

I’ve got a lot of work to do. It hit me today that I’ve not really done any real writing yet - up until this point I’ve been laying the ground work through researching my journals. The real writing starts now - crafting the story and narrative. 

My next writing session is on Thursday 20th May. I need to remind myself that it will become more clear the more I work on it. Right now it feels like I’m wading through treacle.
