Venturing Out Into the Real World

I got off work yesterday and usual I didn't want to do anything when I go home.  Took my shower and ate.  I knew that I needed to call my tax man and get together with him.  i wanted to know what I needed to do for my taxes next year and also to give him a copy of my book.

It is wise to keep the tax guy on your side.  So I called him and he was free that day.  So I changed my clothes and headed outside again. 

When your write, sometimes you have to leave the comfort of your home and computer and venture out into the real world.  I am glad that I did.  It was good to talk to someone who was not related to me, and could be honest with me.  I talked to him for about an hour and now I have things to think about when tax time  comes.

I then stopped off at a bookstore and dropped off some of my printed postcards and book marks.  This was a major event for me.  Maybe not for you or others, but for someone who doesn't like to leave the house, this was major. 

I walked into the store with my postcards in hand and asked the lady if I could leave them with her.  She could hand them out to their customers.  She smiled and said that would be okay.  She smiled.  I said thank you and left the store.

Who knows what she did with the postcards, but for me this was something I had to do.  I need to propmote my book and get out in the real world.  Nothing major happened.  I didn't crumble and the lady didn't laugh at me.  So If I can do this, so can you.

Write No Matter What

I woke up and felt like a truck hit me.  I still turned my computer on and started writing.  That is the only way the story is going to get written.  Do I feel like writing?  Nope.  Do if feel like Blogging?  Nope.  I write cause that is what I do.  So I poured me a soda and let the caffine take its effect.  I have to get ready for work in a bit, I blooged, I wrote a bit, so I am still going in the write direction. I write no matter what.  whether I feel like  it or not. Have a great day. http://sharonleejohnson.com/

Work Ethic

What is your work ethic????  It might get that book written sooner. I admit that televison is my distraction from writing.  I can not write in the living room, where the telvision is staring at me.  I know it talks to me.  Maybe your distraction is something dirrerent.  The dishes calling you to wash them or those dust bunnies talkling to you.  Whatever it is we need to stop listening to them. I always plan on writing more than I do.  I came home from work yesterday, and had plans to write, then I ate and started flipping channels and then the time slipped by and I didn't write anything.  I think it all come down to one's work ethic.  Some have one and some don't. I think I am one of them that does not have a strong work ethic.  The fact that I want my book finished, is what motivates me.  I want to be a writer, so I write. http://iamwalkingwithgod.blogspot.com/
