I’m beginning to notice a troubling pattern. I seem to write just up to 7k, sometimes with a few hundred words in change, and then stop. Kind of like I’m only wearing the required fifteen pieces of “flair” like in the movie Office Space. Don’t I wanna be a team player? Am I the kind of person who only does the bare minimum? So my challenge for next week is to get 8k words, at least.
Sunday Word Count: 7k

I sympathize with you completely. I’ve been having similar issues myself. It’s as though the brain comes to the conclusion that a quota has been reached and imagination shutdown is permissible. Most frustrating.
At least we have a quota, I guess. Without it, I wouldn’t be writing I think.
