A Writer's Life

I know that I have not been on my blogging schedule.  Life got in the way.  Hospitals, Hospital appointments, home health nurse care.  it is rough being a care giver.  It is hard to find the time to write.

I have been writing.  I have been writing in Long Hand.  I have been writing when I can.  I have no answers on how to tell anyone to find time to write when life gets in the way.

I am going to tell you that it can be done.  For me it has to.  Writing keeps me sane.  Writing keeps me focused.  I go to my lap top and for a few moments, all is write with the world.  I have my characters talking to me.  I can go to another world and escape my world.

Readers read to escape to a new world.  I write to escape my world.

My life changed in the past two months.  I am no longer alone with my characters.  I know have to worry about my other half.  I have to worry that he is okay before I can do anything I want to.  That is okay.  He would do the same for me.

So for those writers out that, and that probably is every writer.  Life will get in the way.  You can still write, might take longer.  My have to write in the car or in waiting rooms.  It can be done.  I am doing it.

My new saying is  IT IS WHAT IT IS 

My life has been turned upside down.  I once had an office and my writing was spread out.  Now I am in my bedroom.  I am now writing on my bed.  My printer is now on my night stand.  I am going with the flow.  IT IS WHAT IT IS.

That way I don't get upset about anything.  I go with the flow.

How are you handling your writing when life gets in the way????

It's a Writer's life   IT IS WHAT IT IS

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...
