100,000 Words In 6 Months

100,000 words might not be a lot to some writers.  It is alot to me. Sitting down to write a full lenght novel is very scary.  Lots of pages.  Lots of words. 

I decided the beginning of the year, to write and publish a story a month.  I have been writing around 10,000 words a month. 

I combined 9 Episodes of Me VS Zombies  http://mevszombies.blogspot.com I have 75,000 words.  I still have 3 more Episodes to publish,  I wrote a full length novel in 6 months. 

If I can do this, so can you.  I started out with a goal, a plan.  I started writing, not looking at the end of the year, but at the end of the month.  Each Episode is around 10,000 words.  When all 12 Episodes are done I will combine all Episodes into one book. 

Welcome to Zombie Zoo I did the same thing, last year.  http://sharonleejohnson.com  www.amazon.com/dp/B008Y5D2DA  http://zombiezoothebook.blogspot.com

I wrote 5 Episodes of Zombie Zoo I then wrote a bonus Episode and combined all Episodes into one book. 

Start out with one story.  Ideas will come, you will find more time to write.  Before you know it, you will have written 100,000 words.  A book is written. 

Leave a Comment and let me know how you are writing 100,000 words. 

Every Word Leads To Another Word

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/

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.
