Alright, so I managed to type some stuff into my computer. My current plan is to write during the day, then type up the progress at night and edit as I go. The problem with this is, I keep thinking, "Ah, I should have more of ____ in here!" which is more like revising than editing.
I'm sort of approaching every page like a short story. In a short story, you (re: I) generally know the scope and tone of the thing, so if on page 5 I know something's off, I'm comfortable fixing it. With Anti-Angel I'm on like, page one, and even though I want to make that page really clean and pretty I have a feeling it'll just bog me down and turn me crazy.
Current goal for today is 300 words. I think that's like a page, double spaced. This should be pretty easy to do, since all we're doing in class today is watching a movie and then doing the Jamaica Kincaid workshop.
Also trying to remind myself to just relax and have fun.
Are you getting the sense yet that I'm just a ball of anxiety?
