The Story (would it be bad if I just called it that when I send it off to publishers?).

Today I cracked the 90k word mark - 91k words at the end of my writing today. Plus another job application. Tomorrow I have to write another column for Weekend Notes, so that could stifle things.

So, the MC now realises that she is probably not just dreaming about flying and hurting people, and her dad realises that his daughter might be something beyond human. I killed a cop in a particularly nasty manner as well. Always fun.

The ending is still up in the air, but the characters are certainly dragging me along.

This one is quicker than usual, and I have not been as active in the PrepTober forum. I had a bad mental health turn this morning, and am struggling with the thoughts that will not leave me alone. So much negativity.

Maybe that's why the cop's death was so easy to get down on paper.

I have not felt this bad for a while. But I need to keep writing. 10k+ words already this week. It is my only saviour.

I hate this feeling.

I will just keep on writing.
