Word Count For Month Of May

I made a writing challenge for me this month of May.

My challenge for me was to write everyday, no matter what, even if it was just a sentence.

This is my progress so far:

Day 1  2,005
Day 2 1,055
Day 3  1,000
Day 4  2,700
Day 5  500
Day 6  4,771
Day 7  1,00
Day 8  2,00
Day 9  1,847
Day 10  500
Day 11  3,000
Day 12  2,500
Day 13  1,000
Day 14  500
Day 15  1,000
Day 16  1,000
Day 17  500
Day 18  2,000
Day 19  Terrible Headache
Day 20  500
Day 21  1,000
Day 22 4,000

This is my word count for the month of May.  The days I wrote only 500 words were the days I had headaches.  I manged to write a bit, on the 19th, I could barely function so I wrote nothing. 

I am trying to write each and everyday.  I forced myself on somedays, and then other days the word flowed like yesterday when I wrote 4,000 words.

If I can do it, you can.

It is between yourself.  No one else has to know how many words you write a day.  It is not a contest.  I could write thousands of days in longhand, but those words would never be published or even make sense.  As I write I am working on 3 books so I can not have writer's block.

So let me know how you are doing.

Another thing.  I do not sit at a desk and write.  Right now I am in bed writing and yesterday when I wrote 4,000 words I was writing in my recliner in front of the tv.

Write anywhere.  Just write

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. Let us follow our dream together check out my other blog: http://iamwalkingwithgod.blogspot.com/ Write Something Today
