A short blog to go with a short chapter. The pressure is on--Bennie's got some major deadlines to meet!

Speaking of deadlines (I hope I haven't already spoken about this and forgotten), I was talking with my coworker about how we both actually like deadlines. I know a lot of people find them stressful, but really, they're only stressful when you leave the work to the last minute. They can actually be super useful tools in your personal life, when you have projects you want to do, but aren't being required to do, by school, or work.

If you have a habit of neglecting your own personal work because you don't have anyone waiting on it, set your own deadlines, and get a friend or family member to hold you accountable to them. A good resource for that is NaNoWriMo. I used NaNoWriMo unofficially to finish my third novel, back in 2011. If that's too much of a challenge for you just yet, aim for a chapter a week.

You can do it!
