i’m tweaking the outline for One Way today and deciding what dusky red font color best matches the pale yellow highlighter.

so much of writing for me is making color-coded tables in google docs. in a moment of celebratory accomplishment last year, i snapped a picture of a completed first draft progress bar and texted it to a friend.

i figure: if the writing is hard, and i’m trying to coax myself through a years-long drafting process (or even a twenty-minute session), there are worse distractions than making colorful boxes.
