Staring At A Blank Screen

Has that ever happened to you?  Staring at the computer screen and the blinking curser, that is mocking you.

You have no idea what is going to happen next to your character.  You want to stop writing, but you don't.  Something is driving you to finish the strory. 

You are a writer.  That is what you do.  You do not give up.  That is what Writer's do.

So I am sitting alone at my computer, thinking of what will happen next in my story.  I will not quit.  I am not going to give up.  Whether I sell a book or not, is not why I write.  I write cause I am a writer.

Why do you write????

So the next time you are staring at a blank computer screen and the blinking curser is mocking you, just smile, knowing you are not a lone.  Writers stare at the blank screen, till we fill the screen with words.

Writing When Sick

I didn't feel good the last two days.  I slept a lot, but I was still thinking about my writing.  I did sit on the couch with my laptop and did some writing, though that I know that I need to do rewrite, but I did write.  Today I feel better and hopefully I will get more pages into the computer.  I started the rewrite of a novel that has been rejected 20 times and I will get it back on the market. So that I it.  I am going to start writing and get this done. What are you working on??? This is a new year.....New Beginning. Let us follow our dream together check out my other blog: http://iamwalkingwithgod.blogspot.com/ Write Something Today

Don't Be Scammed

This is my number one pet peeve on being self published.  There are people, website, and courses out there, that want your money. THINK BEFORE YOU SPEND! There are websites out there that will charge you for services that you can learn to do yourself.  If you don't want to learn these things that is fine, pay for it.  But if the reason that you are paying for services is because you don't t think you can, you are totally wrong. I have said this before and I am saying it again.  I knew nothing when I started in 2011,  I had a computer.  I had no idea how to send a file via e-mail. I had no idea what to do one I got the file back from the formatter.  How do I get it uploaded on Amazon.  I had no idea that I had more than one drive on the computer.  I downloaded a file and had no idea where it went. If you are thinking that you can not learn this.  I am proof you can learn if you set your mind to it and are willing to learn. Don't...
