Writing In Longhand

I don't know about you, but I like writing in longhand.  I could write in longhand all day, not that anyone can read my handwriting.  I feel that when I am writing in longhand, I have freedom and can write whatever I want.  I have my characters do and say the craziest things and I can give the characters freedom to do whatever they want.

When I write on the computer, I feel like I have to produce, word count or something brilliant. 

I am working on a Christian Romance for the next book.

I also have all these ideas about The End of Times, with this Corona Virus on the news 24/7. 
So these ideas are in my head and are screaming to be written.  I need to write the Christian Romance.  I want to get these ideas about the Virus on paper.

So I got another notebook and started writing in longhand.  I am jotting down notes on what is going on in the news now.  I then started writing in first person about someone living through this virus.  I am writing in longhand and just writing. 

Writing in longhand gives me freedom to write whatever I feel like and it is fun.  I don't worry about the word count or spelling or plot points and chapters.  I just write.

So at this time.  I am on the computer writing the Christian Romance Novel and in Longhand I am writing a novel about the Corona Virus.

Either way I am writing everyday.

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/

Work Ethic

What is your work ethic????  It might get that book written sooner. I admit that televison is my distraction from writing.  I can not write in the living room, where the telvision is staring at me.  I know it talks to me.  Maybe your distraction is something dirrerent.  The dishes calling you to wash them or those dust bunnies talkling to you.  Whatever it is we need to stop listening to them. I always plan on writing more than I do.  I came home from work yesterday, and had plans to write, then I ate and started flipping channels and then the time slipped by and I didn't write anything.  I think it all come down to one's work ethic.  Some have one and some don't. I think I am one of them that does not have a strong work ethic.  The fact that I want my book finished, is what motivates me.  I want to be a writer, so I write. http://iamwalkingwithgod.blogspot.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.
