Let's Start Writing Then!

a_qI spent the New Years with my friend, who has just moved to a new town and started a new job. She was miserable at her old job (I was getting really worried), so it was so good to see her feeling so much better now, and loving the new town and the new flat.
I bought Chuck Wendig's 'The Kickass Writer' for the buss ride, and it was hilarious - I tried not to laugh outloud! I don't know if the book has anything amazingly different advice than other writing books, but the advice is short, to the point and weird & funny. I really liked it - especially the 'Finish Your Shit!'. That's a good advice, but really hard to follow...
I've been writing with the new computer, and it's surprisingly difficult to get used to the smaller keypad (I thought I wouldn't mind the difference). I keep hitting the wrong letters, because I'm so used to my old keypad that muscle memory is all over the place. It's like learning to type all over again, so slow!
But I started to rewrite one of the NaNo stories, and I'm determined to finish it AND post it! Ooh, big goal, I know, but I really need a goal to get any writing done.
Write for 2018!
