I need to get organized I suppose.

Can you break it up into smaller chunks? Like 1200 words per day or whatever you fee would be doable in the time frame you have. Set a timer and focus solely on what you’re doing and keep doing that till you finish. Maybe give yourself short breaks after every mini goal you reach, so once you hit 1200 words maybe take a break and watch a show or work on music or something enjoyable to you. Then get back to it afterward. That’s usually what helped me when I was in college and had large essays and papers to complete in a deadline
I think the hardest part about things like that is just getting started. The more you think about it the more one is likely to procrastinate and put it off. So I just try to jump in on things like that even if I feel like I won’t finish or it won’t be perfect or I don’t feel up to it at the moment
