First Draft In A Month

I am co-authoring a book with stephen Ormsby and we will have the first draft down in the end of the month.  Who would of thought.  Not me.  I went in this with no thought and we didn't even know each other.  To my surprise, it is working out.  We are on the same page and and are not afraid to tell what we are thinking.

So this is a good thing for me.  The fact that we are writing so fast means that we have time to work on our own writing, plus get this book published.  It is a series and we already are plotting the next book out.  so this is very exciting.

I will tell you that since I started co-authoring a book , my writing time has increased.  I am more productive.  I have some one to answer to and I am realizing that my ideas are not that crazy and some one likes my writing and ideas.  It is giving me more self esteem and the will to write more.

You might want to think about co-authoring a book.  You don't have to give up your own stories or voice.  You might find that you are a better writer than you think

Write something today.

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/

Get that Book Published

USA UK Denmark Asia FREE On Kindle Unlimited Write no matter what anyone says.  We all have a story to tell.  If you are a writer, your friends and family might get why you write.  I know that my family does not get me at all.  They just roll their eyes and ignore the fact that I am now a self-published writer.  They don't care.  So I don't talk about my writing to them.  Why waste my time. Instead, I write.  I might not write 2,000 words everyday.  What I do everyday is, I write.  I write and it might only be 100 words, but I wrote something. I blog and I consider that writing.  I have people come to my blog everyday.  People are reading what I write, like you are reading what I have written, therefore I am a writer.   I know that it is lonely sometimes and you wonder why bother.  I write to live.  I can not write. You can be a self-published writer in less than a mont...
