Last night I passed 120,000 words on my first draft.

I’ve been trying to write a book for close to three decades. Sometimes I would right 10,000 words and give up, sometimes I’d give up after a single paragraph. But for some reason, this time I’ve stuck with it.

Still a bit of work to do to finish it up, and it’s still the first draft, but I’ve never been so close to achieving my lifelong ambition.
