Path: Moonlight Trail
My goal: 20,000
Current word count: 16,543

I wrote my review for Cold Front, and I started outlining my article about suicidism. I'm hoping to start writing that article today, or tomorrow. Fingers crossed! Especially because I have this week off from college.

As you can see, I bumped my wordcount goal down. I initially bumped it down to 15k, and then ended up passing it while outlining my article. I tried really hard to let myself be proud, but it was hard, because I was basically almost at 15k when I chose to bump it down. So, I chose to bump it back up again to 20k. I think that's doable for me even at this point, so here's hoping!

Of course, my mental health is still, as the kids say, Bad. But I feel a lot better about this challenge after changing the word count goal, and stopping that "daily minimum word count" nonsense.
