RE: The "Good Frustration"... Just Posting a Work In Progress Before Sleep
Totally familiar with it, but we are just humans with other obligations as well. It's like reading an amazing book and then realizing it's 5 in the morning and if you'll read one more line, your going to get the migraine of a life time. But your still in the middle of the best part.
Can't wait to see your finished work though.
Great comparison! Consuming great content can definitely get you into that same zone!
Yeah. I made a very big mistake with the Hunger Games: Catching Fire. After about 15 hours of straight reading, your body kinda starts to collapse, even with food and water. I never repeated that mistake again, but it was a really good book and I really wanted to know what happens next.
I haven't done a marathon reading session like that in many years. Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series prompted those several times.
Occasionally I take a weekend day and sit on a book. But I never do so many hours straight, never to repeat that mistake, gave me such a horrible migraine that I am unlikely to forget.
