If I Can Write Everyday: So Can You

How is your writing coming along?

Yesterday I had a great day writing. After I blogged yesterday, I went into the living room, sat in the recliner and wrote 4,771 words.

I surprised myself.  I did not write all of that in one sitting.  I was writing and on a roll, when I had to stop and run an errand.  When I got home, I didn't want to write, but I also, wanted to reach the 10,000 word count.

I picked up the laptop and started writing.  I kept looking at my word count because I was not going to stop until I made it to 10,000 words and then I stopped.

So it is possible to write if you really want to.  You have to want to.

I don't live to write

I write to live.

I have to write.  I don't have a choice if I want to remain sane.  I suffer from depression I just want to lay in bed or in my recliner and watch tv.  I write to stay focus and not to drift off in a place I might not come back from..

So this Writing Challenge In May is important to me.  I am forcing myself to write,  I am focus on writing.  I am writing a new story and as I write I am just writing whatever comes to mind.  I am not editing or deleting anything.  I am just writing.

My word count so far is:  12,031

This includes words I have written in longhand and on the computer. 

What is your word count so far?

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.

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/
