Today will be the 100th day writing in a row, thanks to the Magic Spreadsheet. I have thoughts on it, cause that’s how I roll.

My sad, limp brain muscle feels the same way after a 3k day. Also after NaNoWriMo. I’m hoping magic spreadsheet keeps me going after NaNos because December and January have traditionally been “lay in a puddle of my own exhausted creativity.” Here’s hoping it keeps me going after my thesis is due in June.
I wonder–does reading your first book aloud during the day and coming home to work on your second feed back on itself creatively?
Karen, it helps me in the way that I see the errors (not errors, per se, but weak writing) in book 1 as I read it aloud, and I cringe and freak out, and promise myself not to make them again in the second book.
Showering and dressing are on your “must do” list? Wow, you are dedicated.
Surprisingly easy to put off when you work from home.
Mur, is there a way we can ask questions about the magic spreadsheet? Such as what, exactly, the “Level Up?” and “Consistency” cells are doing? I can’t make heads or tails of the formulae.
And by ‘is there a way’ I mean ‘to whom should I direct the question’ and ‘how’?
Gary, explore the spreadsheet, there’s a page with detailed instructions and a link to the Facebook page for further discussion.
Congratulations on making 100 days of writing in a row.
