It is 5 in the morning. I couldn't sleep. I have 12 chicks in my bathtub. Saturday is my last day as an employed person. I still have bills to pay. My mind has been racing all night. I could not sleep. I woke up at 4 in the morning. Yes I want to write my 4 book series, but the other main thing I want and need to do is to blog.
Blog about my writing life.
Blog on my walk with GOD.
So I climbed out of bed. Drank a glass of orange juice. Took my Zertec. Grabbed a Pepsi, prayed. Read the Bible. Turned on the computer and here I am. The house is quiet. I have my Monkey's CD on and am now blogging.
As a writer, I have to write when I can. When I wrote , Me VS Zombies Series I worked the night shift. 10:00pm-6am Some might say that is a terrible shift and it is,but not for a writer. I worked at night and slept during the day. On my nights off. I did not try to be a day person. I still slept during the day and on my nights off, I had the entire night to write. I would write, blog or whatever the entire night. That was how I was able to write and publish an episode every month. The nights are quiet, and nothing on tv. I wrote at night.
Now that I will be unemployed at the end of the week, have chickens, need to plant the garden soon, and try to spend time with my boyfriend, I no longer can sleep all day and write all night.
So I got up at 5 in the morning, to blog, then go and run errands. Try to write this afternoon.
The point is, for me there will be no set time to write. I am going to write when I can. Get up early, stay up late, stop watching tv.
I need a routine. Not sure what that will be. All I know is that I will write and blog everyday(at least try) but if I do not write, I will not beat myself up for not writing.
The important thing is to write, everyday.
Yesterday I wrote 1,349 words. I fleshed out the first Chapter. I am totally re-writing the book. I am starting from scratch, though the skeleton of the story remains the same.
