So, despite a success in the word count and days of writing in a row, I'm not so good on the production level. But I hope as the habit really makes a move on my system to increase my writing time each day. So far it's sometimes only 30 minutes, and that's during commercials of TV time. Bad me.
On another front: There is no worse thing than watching your grown kid go through an emotional trial and you can do nothing -- NOTHING -- to make it better. At least when they're little you can wrap them in your arms and rock away their hurts, or at least hold them until the hurts subside. When they're an adult you can offer hugs and words of encouragement, but then must step aside and watch while they mend their own hurts, knowing there will be scars left. It makes your heart ache.
