Honestly?
It’s a combination. Partly because physically and mentally it takes a lot out of me so I try to do small bursts.
But also because I have a short attention span and this little bite size bunch of words every so often is a lot easier for me to manage than having to write a thousand or more words. If I am going to write that much I want it to be words spent on my books. Either THE BIG PROJECT or PROJECT: MAC.
It really is that simple. To be honest I try to do these when I remember which isn’t exactly often.
Priorities with writing tend to start and stop brain power levels at working on the books. Anything beyond that is generally what I consider to be a miracle.
It’s not that I don’t care. It’s that my energy comes in short waves and I have to decide carefully where it goes. My spoonie self has to find a way to prioritise.
