Writer problem #X+5: Sitting at the coffee shop and not being able to write because there's a cute little dog that needs being looked at.

Writer problem #X+4: Not being able to write because the niece is watching baby TV on the laptop.

Writer problem #X+3: Writing fight scenes.

Writer problem #X+2: Shortening "human supremacist" to "humanist" only to later realise it doesn't quite carry the same meaning anymore.

Writer problem #X+1: Swapping seats at the coffee shop three times and still not being in my favourite spot.

Writer problems #X: An unexpected action scene appears and confuses the plot. That's unexpected as in "this wasn't part of the outline."

Sorry Devor, I'll get back to writing.

Doing the long overdue timeline for the backstory of my current WiP, and I discover that my MC went to uni to become a structural engineer.

The niece is wrecking the apartment. At least there's coffee.

No writing today. Time to babyproof the apartment - niece is coming to visit. :)
