Writing With A Migraine

Yesterday I had a terrible Migraine.  I just wanted to curl up in the chair and watch tv,  I did not want to read or write.

I knew that I had to write something, anything.  So I turned on the computer and wrote one sentence, then I was done.

I then went to watch some mindless tv.  I picked up my notebook and wrote 500 words in long hand.

I wrote with a migraine, so I wouldn't feel worse for not writing at all.

I haven't made my word count yet.  I am not including my blogs part of my word count.

So this is what I have written so far this month.

5/1/20  2,005

5/2/20  1,055

5/3/20  1,000

5/4/20  2,700

5/5/20  500

Total Word count to date:  7,260 Words this month so far.

I am going to take my lap top to the recliner and sit in front of the tv and write.

I write better when I have some noise.  I think tv is like company and not so lonely

My goal for today is to write 3,000 words and then I would break 10,000 in 6 days that would be amazing for me.

So if you just found my blog, I created a Challenge For The Month of May

To write every single day, write something, no matter what.  My main goal is 1,000 words a day, but like yesterday I just wrote 500, today I am shooting for 3,000 words,  Let's see if I can do this.

I am writing a new story and am not editing or rewriting, I am just letting my mind go and write where the characters take me.  It is surprising how well the story is so far.

Join me to write everyday this month.

Leave a comment or word count and lets write together.

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/

Get that Book Published

USA UK Denmark Asia FREE On Kindle Unlimited Write no matter what anyone says.  We all have a story to tell.  If you are a writer, your friends and family might get why you write.  I know that my family does not get me at all.  They just roll their eyes and ignore the fact that I am now a self-published writer.  They don't care.  So I don't talk about my writing to them.  Why waste my time. Instead, I write.  I might not write 2,000 words everyday.  What I do everyday is, I write.  I write and it might only be 100 words, but I wrote something. I blog and I consider that writing.  I have people come to my blog everyday.  People are reading what I write, like you are reading what I have written, therefore I am a writer.   I know that it is lonely sometimes and you wonder why bother.  I write to live.  I can not write. You can be a self-published writer in less than a mont...
