Lost all my writing momentum this weekend, but finally forced myself to start Chapter 5 tonight. When I did, the scene just took over. Love when the story decides to write itself. How's everyone else's writing weekend going?

A draft snippet of Chapter 4 of Failing Up.

When the going gets tough, Henry takes a nap.

“I’m too exhausted to deal with this. I’ve walked further today than I did all last year. Wake me up when the dirt ring won’t kill us, or we’re about to die,” Henry said, closing his eyes.

He‌ started rolling onto his side, then stopped and turned his head back toward Richard and Fay. “On second thought, if we're gonna die, don't wake me up. I’d rather be asleep for that. So just wake me up when there's a way out.”

After Henry finished his roll, the whole clearing looked at him in disbelief. After a pause, Henry ended the silence by snoring.
