Write-Rewrite-Write-Rewrite



WRITE REWRITE WRITE REWRITE

It is enough to make one crazy.

I will write and rewrite, write and rewrite the first chapter again and again and it makes me crazy.  If I don't get the first chapter right, I feel that the rest of the story will go into the wrong direction.

I am writing 2 books at one time.  Most writers don't but then I don't have writer's block.  I am always writing.

How many times do you write and rewrite.



Find My Books


I have over 50 E-books on Amazon.  I wrote, edit and published a short story every month till I reached the 50 E-Books.  That was my personal goal.  That is how I learned to write fast, stay focus, edit and publish on my own schedule.  I don't have to answer to anyone except myself. 

This year, I am not writing a short story every month.  This year 2017 I am focusing on Blogging and writing a non-fiction book on my life and a fiction novel, based on an incident that happened in my life. 

Whether you are writing fiction or non-fiction doesn't matter, you still have to write and rewrite. 

We need to accept it and enjoy the process.

I was rewriting the first scene of the fiction novel, and it just didn't feel right.  When I woke up this morning, I had an entire new beginning, one that I think will work.  So I am excited.  I am going to rewrite the beginning..  I think it will make the Heroine stronger and the Hero more sexy and heroic.

So I am excited.  If you are not excited about your story, neither will the readers.

There is nothing wrong with rewriting.  It is part of the process.  I don't believe writers who say they don't rewrite.  They might rewrite less than me and that is okay.  I am not competing against them.  This is my story and I will do what it takes to get written.

How many times are you willing to rewrite.  Don't get mad, don't feel defeated.  We all rewrite.  Enjoy the process and it will be worth it, when you write the words The End.

So get writing so you can rewrite, till the story is finished.

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/
