My Writing Day

It is only June 5th, but I have written around 10,000 words so far.  The words are flowing this month.  I am using Save The Cat Book and using the 15 beats.  I know how the story starts and how the story ends and what happens at midpoint.

If you do not have Save the Cat series. I suggest you grab a copy.  Save The Cat

Yes it is for screenwriting, Jessica Brody also wrote a book on how to use Save the Cat book to write a novel. 

I am not getting any money for talking about these books.  It is just what I am using.

I am writing the rough draft of my novel and I am surprised how well it is going.  I have been blogging every morning on this blog and My Other Blog 

Then I go and feed the chickens, and surf the net a bit and in the afternoon, I work on my books.

I am writing throughout the day, though not in all one sitting. 

I blog in bed and in the afternoon, I move into the livingroom and write in front of the television in my recliner until around five pm.

I committed myself to write everyday.  I think it is paying off.  If I don't feel like writing or something comes up, I shoot for at least 500 words that day.

What is your writing day like?

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/

Writing Everyday

I am in awe of people who can write everyday.  I have heard that for years.  Write Everyday, even if it is just one word, one sentence or 1,000 words. I believe it.  Writer's write.  It is that simple. There are people on Facebook, posting their word count.  I am in awe of those people. I try to write everyday, but it does not always work out that way for me. I guess what I am trying to say, it that don't feel bad if you don't write for one day.  You are still a writer. I know that this is NANO month and you are suppose to write everyday and at the end of the month, have written 50,000 words.  Which is awesome.  The way I am going, I am not going to make it.  I have no excuse but I have headaches everyday and I mean everyday.  Some days are better than others.  A lot of the headaches are sinus headaches.  I am not using this as an excuse.  I know that others have worse problems in their lives. So if you are a...
