Very messy first draft of Chapter One is now sailing off into the digital ether towards my adviser. 😭😭😭

Screenshot of MS Word screen with the following information: “Page 35 of 35, 11135 words, English (Philippines)”

I think I can let go of the bulk of writing this chapter and can now concentrate on filling out the intro and conclusion. 🤞🏼 Hoping to finish this by tomorrow and send it off!

Fiddled around with chapter work yesterday and added a couple more paragraphs for the intro and the conclusion of the chapter. 🫠🫠🫠 Leaning into this whole “messy writing” process and it’s such a new and novel experience.

This should be terms and conditions to agree every time you engage with a story.

-someone else's fiction cannot cause physical harm
- if someone else's fiction is causing you emotional or psychological harm, or distress, you can put it down and not read/watch it
- your empirical well-being is not the responsibility of fiction writers 
- someone else's fiction is not about your personal trauma
- when reading or watching fiction, you always have The power. You can always stop. You are never reading fiction without your own consent.
- fiction writers are not responsible for other people's mental health. 
- the content of a piece of fiction does not reflect on the morality of its author 
- just because someone writes about bad things happening, doesn't mean they want those things to happen. 
- don't like? Don't read.

Attended Diss Workshop class yesterday and it felt like therapy for PhD students (in a great way). It helps that it’s being taught by one of my fave profs. Got an extension for my Chapter 1 to next week. 🫠🫠🫠
