Putting Writing First

I need to write when I get up.  I am more focused and productive.  My husband, also likes to get up and run errands and do things early in the morning.

I am sitting in bed, with my Pepsi and I read the Bible, and am blogging.  He was going to town.  I did not go with him, because I know what I want to get done with my writing.  If I went with him, I probably wouldn't get any writing done, because one errand leads to another errand.  So he went with by himself.

Does that make me a bad person?

Before I quit my "Real Job" no one expected me to drop what I was doing, and go to town.  I had a legit reason for not going everywhere.  I had to work.

Now, I work from home, and I am suppose to drop everything and run errands, feed the chickens etc.

So what do you think?

Do you put your writing first????

Does your writing suffer if you do put everything and everyone first????

They say, treat writing like a job.  If you do, then people are going to be mad.

What do you do.

So I didn't go to town.  I need to focus and editing my story, so I can send it off to the editor which I think is more important than going to town.

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.

Don't Be Scammed

This is my number one pet peeve on being self published.  There are people, website, and courses out there, that want your money. THINK BEFORE YOU SPEND! There are websites out there that will charge you for services that you can learn to do yourself.  If you don't want to learn these things that is fine, pay for it.  But if the reason that you are paying for services is because you don't t think you can, you are totally wrong. I have said this before and I am saying it again.  I knew nothing when I started in 2011,  I had a computer.  I had no idea how to send a file via e-mail. I had no idea what to do one I got the file back from the formatter.  How do I get it uploaded on Amazon.  I had no idea that I had more than one drive on the computer.  I downloaded a file and had no idea where it went. If you are thinking that you can not learn this.  I am proof you can learn if you set your mind to it and are willing to learn. Don't...
