A Writing Routine

Do you have a writing routine?

I wish I could say yes.  I do not have a routine.  I do have to get a routine when I quit my job or I will get no writing done.

I wish I could tell you the secret of sticking to a routine. 

My job is the reason I have no routine.  I work nights and I sleep most of the morning.  So I can not get up an hour early to write or stay up an hour later, because working nights I am just tired all the time and I need to sleep when I can.

That being said.  I do find time to right everyday.  I am working on 3 books at the same time, so I can never have writer's block. 

On my days off, when I don't write my excuse is, I am tired, I am just going to be lazy.  That is a lame excuse.

So in 3 months I will have 24 hours to write.  I need a routine.  I have chickens and a garden to take care of this summer.  That can not be my excuse for not writing.  I also live by 2 lakes and have a boat, so boating can not be an excuse.

I also need to be more regular on my blogging and post my progress.  Blogging is my top priority.  If I show you that I write everyday and self-publish, then you will realize that it is also possible for you to self-publish also.  If I can do this, so can you. 

I don't have all the answers.  No one does.  What works for one person, might not work for someone else, so you have to find what works for you.

As long as you are writing everyday, you are ahead of the game. 

So the question is:  Do you have a writing routine?

If you do, let me know, leave a comment and let me know...Help others on let them know about your routine.

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/

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.
