On How It Is: Episode II – Attack of the Revision

The days have blurred into one. I measure the passing of time as a single number, counting down. Each time I wake up, that number has decreased. It will get to zero all too soon, then be reset instantly to 11, the period of bonus stress where I try to write 9000 words before collapsing from exhaustion. And after that? Well…it starts all over again, for another 6 or 7 weeks.

The life of a student during the summer term is never enjoyable, as David VandeLinde would know if he was ever on campus.

Excuse me…I'm off to find a piece of rope and a chair with an unstable leg.
