Potentially, yes! Have you already started your PhD?

Hi, me. I'm 3rd year, eek, and really having problems with procrastination with my writing. I spot of accountability might be helpful!

Oooops, sorry, seem to have posted twice! If only I could write as much in my current chapter.

Namelesswonder YOU CAN DO THIS! Which chapter is it? How about challenging yourself to a certain number of words per day?

Procrastination is a bit of a problem for me too... I'm luckily expected to turn up to uni every day or I'd spend my life in bed on Netflix...

Hi, yes I aim for 1,000 words a day. When I'm on form I manage it. This week I had one child sent home from school on Monday sick and off on Tuesday. Other child had Drs appointment on Wednesday which took up loads of time and today I just never really got started. Tomorrow I'm busy then the DC finish school at 12 so are around all afternoon. I think I will start afresh on Monday!
