I Am My Own Worse Enemy

 Day 2 of Writing 125,000 Words

I didn't write as much as I wanted to.  But I did write.

Yesterday I wrote: 1,470 words.

Goal: 125,000 words

Deadline December 31,2020

Words Left to write. 114,765

I know I can do better.  I am own worse enemy. I have self-doubt.  I think whatever I write is terrible.  In my head, I hear "You are stupid and no one is going to read this.  Stupid, Stupid, Stupid"

My mind keeps going back to when I was in grade school.  I wrote a short story.  I stood in the bathroom doorway and asked my mother if she would read my story.  She was on her knees, cleaning the toilet, and her reply was.  "I am to busy for that."

To this day, she has never read anything I wrote.  that is in my head and can't get it out.  so I am going to write this book for me and no one else.  It is my personal goal.  No one cares if I write or not.  God cares.  God gave me this gift of writing and I am not going to waste it.  If  you have a story to write, don't waste the gift that God has given you.  You have a story to write---write it.

I have a story to write--I am going to write it and I don't care if anyone else reads it.  This is my personal Goal.

I am going to get out of my way and write and watch the words increase and when I print the hard copy, I am going to watch the pages stack up.  I am a writer and I am going to write.  Don't care what anyone else thinks, says or does about my writing.

What about you?  You going to write your story?  Leave a comment

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/
