Balancing Writing with Life

I had 2 days off. I had plans to write. That didn't happen.

I was exhausted. I managed to blog and that was about it.

It is hard to work and write and take care of your family. It is a balancing act. Don't beat yourself up. You are going to have days that you won't be able to write.

It doesn't matter who you are. We all have things that have to come before writing. That is a fact. If you don't write one day, the world did not come to an end. Try to write the next day. Don't feel guilty or beat yourself up. Today is a new day.

Write something to day. You are a writer. Write and move forward.

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/

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...
