Lizzy Worked tonight for a few hours, made good headway. Two steps forward but one step back for me.

Matthew Cornell OK, Tue night and did pretty well, though didn't complete it. turns out my estimates were way off. Ironically, the doc I'm writing has a section on accurate planning and estimating! Enjoying the ride by noticing ironies!

Matthew Cornell since starting the challenge two days ago, I accomplished at least 42 important steps in my writing plan. My overall structure has pretty much emerged, with two top-level sections to merge and worksheets to decide before turning it into prose. Good work, Matt!
