Well, technically 3 weeks as of yesterday, but close enough. How are things going at Casa Questus?
Really well! Writing has slowed down a bit, but that’s to be expected. Still on pace to finish the novel in a few weeks, at most, so that’s good news. Still eating really well (I’m thinking about making pizza dough from scratch… I know a lot of people out there are going goo-goo for sourdoughs, but honestly I’ve been there, done that, and I’m not a fan. Too finicky. I’ll stick with my baking yeast, thank you!), going on daily hour-long walks to listen to podcasts (that’s been a lovely habit to get back into… although at this rate I’m going to have to subscribe to more podcasts to keep me in new content!), and still contributing to podcasts and short story competitions and all that jazz.
I miss my friends, of course, and I miss petting random cats and dogs I encounter on my walks, but those are small prices to pay for the amount of work I’m getting done and the general sense of accomplishment I have.
Which is good, because all signs are pointing towards at least another few months of this. Which I know is hard for a lot of people out there. But not here, not yet!
I’m going to go on my walk while it’s still early and there aren’t too many people out. Hope everyone out there is staying safe and healthy!
