Blogging, Tweeting, Deadlines & Holidays

Who has time to do it all?  I don't.  I want to write.  I need to promote my books.  I have deadlines to meet and oh yea there is that day, Called Thanksgiving and oh yea something about Christmas shopping, people around me except me to buy a present and hand it to them on Christmas day. 

What is a writer to do????  I keep writing one word at a time.  I know that the holidays are here and they will suck your time out of you.  Stay focus.  I plan on having 3 books out the first of the year.

I have created deadlines for me.  I have someone doing my covers and someone editing my manuscript.  If I miss the deadline then I am messing up their schedule. 

I am not going to let the holidays get to me.  I will get things done, but my writing comes first.  That and my day job (of course).

Stop watching those commericials and stop surfing the net.  Focus on what is important to you.  Meeting my deadlines is important to me.

Have you planned you goals for 2013??????   Never to late.  I have my goals set  

What are your goals for 2013????

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/
