For reasons I don't wholly understand, I've been leaving my freewrite/selfie contest submissions to the last minute for over a week now. I've been so consistently near-late that I'm almost positive 
I'm not sure exactly what's compelling me. It started because I was out of town, and then had houseguests, and then I just couldn't muster the wherewithal to make it happen. It didn't start this way. I actually made banana bread for the first day of the contest! But that's always the way it goes. I start out timely, and then over time, I get lax. I slack. I procrastinate. And then I'm doing the limbo under the wire.
This even though I know that earlier participation leads to more interaction and connection on Steemit. Though perhaps that's not unrelated-- in the current stretch of the depression battle known as my life, it takes a lot of my 'spoons,' as it were, to reach out. And that's weird in and of itself; I love words and I love people and I don't enjoy the part of the process where my chemistry tells me otherwise.
