Madeleine Is Still Determined

...but she is also still writing Story #1.

Yes the latest deadline was yesterday, but I am not gong to dwell on that and bring myself down.

The writing is going well. I want Story #1 to be finished more than anyone, dear readers! I am sick of writing about Story #1 on this blog way more than any of you (either of you?) are (is?) of reading about it.

Perhaps I should not set deadlines anymore. I never meet them. Deadlines, though, even if they are never met, are still good for me. They make me focus. Someday I will actually meet them.

The blog is difficult to keep up when I am writing. I don't want to spend time writing on the Mildred when I should be spending time writing Story #1.

Plus, and again, it is less fun to blog without Agnes. Are you reading, Agnes? Say something!

As much as I flog myself (is that the right word?), punish myself, belittle myself, and on and on, for NOT writing on the Mildred, for dropping the blog, so to speak, at least I am doing better with it than Agnes is doing.

Yes, Agnes, that was directed at you. Does that sting, Agnes? Tell us if it stings.
