What I want from this journal

[narrownights]

I want to write a short story every week for the next five weeks. We'll see how it goes. Between my sister's wedding coming up, working full time, and an onslaught of issues from my landlord, there's not a lot of free time.

But writing has always been my escape, and if I don't do this I think my brain might explode and leak out my ears, and wouldn't that be an unfortunate mess?

If I could also make a dent in my novel, that would be swell.
