the hazards of habit

one flaw with this strategy is that if I set "7 PM " as my evening writing time, one social event or reading or meetup or , heaven help us, an actual goddamn date , then I will break that streak pretty quickly

Better do my "real" evening writing between 6 & 7 , after dog walking , and screw the "late evenings in the office"  or any other interference.

I can still show up for this, but it's mure supplemental  - free writing, revision, research etc ...
