Today was the first day in my entire life that I spent all day doing nothing but writing. I took a shower, fed my horse, and then packed up my laptop and went to the Borders cafe to write. Its a wonder how much work you can get done when there is no internet available to fool around on. I finished a manuscript I'd been dawdling over (and by dawdling I mean I only had a vague idea and no story written at all.) I got another story through the tough phase and well on its way to completion. I edited an already completed manuscript. I even got to work on revamping my 'bio' page in light of my recent publications.

Looking back, I'm really surprised I got that much accomplished. I'm so used to having the internet to slack off on that I've just automatically take that into account when I measure how much I can do in a day.

I'm going to head up to Borders and do the same thing again tomorrow. Hopefully all the effort I'm putting in will pay off and I'll get a few more acceptances for my portfolio. God knows I could use them.
