Sunday.... My day off from writing, yet I have a HUGE amount of work to do in order to re-outline and restructure my novel. So that is making me anxious. I need to not put so much pressure on myself. I know from experience it will work out.


One thing that is making me feel pressured is that a member of my writing group quizzes me about how it's going. She means well but... I guess in writing group (which is a writing session not critiques) I could always work on short stories. I'm more familiar with writing stories and I do want to continue with both. I can just say I've put the novel aside for now until I can move ahead....

This same member has been an absolute boon to me in many ways, and I like her very much.
