Writing Update: Word Count VS Page Count

In the past 4 days I have written 11,000 words which is 23 pages singled space.
As I am writing this week, I am just writing, I have no goal really but am more concern about my page count rather than word count.

I can write 1,000 words on anything, an idea, the book I am writing or just write in longhand, but that is not going to get my book written, so I am concentrating on Page Count.  Today I am on page 24, Chapter 4 single spacing. 

The past three days I have been sitting in my recliner, in front of the TV watching Sharkfest.  I have tv on for noise and I just sit and type, for 2-3 hours.  I have written 11,000 words just this week which is good for me.  If I keep this up, I will have the rough draft done within 30 days,

The book is in my head, I just have to get it on paper and that is what I am doing.

What are you working on?

Are you doing Word Count or Page Count?

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.
