I have been writing today and I posted a chapter.

My game plan for the week is to write as much as I can before Saturday gets here because I am going to go see Avengers Endgame with some friends that day. I'm not sure how much I will want to write when I come out on the other side of that movie!

I just found out today that a huge commitment I had made that was going to tie me up for at least a week, is not happening, and this frees me up in a huge way! So I can safely commit myself to getting back into my writing schedule without fear of being interrupted, or having the stress of a huge project hanging over me and keeping me from being able to think straight. I have a number of projects I can work on, but I'm going back to my chaptered WIP to see if I can get a new chapter written and posted by the end of the week.

I did some writing, planning, researching, etc. in the earlier weeks of April, but it's all stalled. :(

Sadly, my game plan is to try to stop reminding myself of how frustrated I am at trying to write numerous long fics in a dead fandom (because I can't do it without help and the one person I had helping me backed out when they realized it was going to be long). Should anyone want to watch Rookie Blue and assist, you're more than welcome (and if you know of anyone who likes to *read* Rookie Blue fic, please please send them my way - because they might be useful!). But until I get another alpha reader, I really just need to take a break from bashing my head against a wall in frustration. No exchanges any time soon - I would've signed up for NoFM had there been anything I could've written for - so I may just not write for a while. *sigh*

Mostly editing.

I'm aiming to have the fills I have so far for fluffbingo posted this week. They're mostly ready they just need a final read through for sneaky typos.

Getting myself organized. I'm now using an app called Notion to basically organize everything that matters to me. What's taking so long is that I am visual (surprise!) and respond better to images than to walls of text. This is something I've had to come to terms with in my quest to find the ideal productivity management software application. I am migrating to a premium Notion account from a premium Evernote account that I mostly used for journaling. I tried to use it to organize my fandom artifacts but it didn't work. Me + Evernote = FAILURE. So now I'm using Notion, which has Kanban page views and gallery page templates that I am putting EVERYTHING into. At this rate I will compartmentalize every conceivable corner of my brain into a page in my Notion workspace. LOL and I live for that day!
