A Writing Challenge For The Month of May

It is Friday, May 1st of 2020

I have no excuse not to write.  I quit my job to write.  I have published 4 books since I quit my job last year.


Find all my books at Find All My Books At

So why am I not writing as much as I should?  Lazy.  That is my answer.

I get up in the morning and blog every morning on my blog I Am Walking With God  I do this every morning.  Then I go to Facebook, big mistake.  There are two writing groups I joined and look at daily,  20kto50kbooks & Write A Million Words   So there is an at least two hours.  I then have to go check on the chickens, water them and then let me check out the news....  You get the picture.

So I have 4 books published since I quit my job and a rough draft of the novel I am working on.  So I am accomplishing something, just not enough.

On my blog, I am walking with I am reading the Bible everyday so at the end of the year, I will have read the entire Bible.  So I am blogging about what I am reading that day.  I am determined to see this through.

If you haven't heard of Jess Mountifield, google her and find her on Facebook.  In the month of April she wrote over 100,000 words in one month.  She has written for 1,000 days straight.  Awesome.


So this is what I am thinking.  I blog everyday, so I am going to start today, blogging everyday, or almost everyday and tell you how much writing and publishing I am getting done.

Starting today, I am going to write at least 1,000 words a day.  At the end of May I should have written at least 30,000 words and if lucky, a rough draft of a novel.

Who wants to join me????

Choose your word count.  Could be 500 words a day, 50 words a day or 5,000 words a day.

Join me as I write everyday this month.  Post in the comment section on how you are doing.  You are not competing with anyone, except yourself.

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/
