It's The Journey Not The Destination

You have heard it before, it is the journey not the destination.

That is probably true.

I have an idea for a big book. 500 page book. 4 Characters viewpoint in each chapter.. That means that I will have 4 major character Arks. That means that I will have 4 main characters in every chapter.

It is a Road trip book with a map, a goal and destination. Every character will have a different goal.

Why do I want to write this book. Because it is in my head. I want this book out of my head.

So I have took a step yesterday on this journey.

Yesterday I wrote 2,168 words

Goal is to write 125,000 words

Deadline December 31,2020

Words left to write, 116,235

I will be blogging on my progress on my word count.

I know in another post I said that I was not going to keep track on word count. I can write 1,000-3,000 words a day and they might just be starting a new story or working on a story, but not being focused on one book.

This word count is for one book. I want to write everyday at least 2,000 words or more.

Do you want to write a first draft of a book? Join me on this journey. It is the end of the year. What better way to start the new year, by having a rough draft to rewrite, rework and edit and publish.

Writing When Sick

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???

Don't Be Scammed

This is my number one pet peeve on being self published. There are people, website, and courses out there, that want your money. THINK BEFORE YOU SPEND! There are websites out there that will charge you for services that you can learn to do yourself. If you don't want to learn these things that is fine, pay for it. But if the reason that you are paying for services is because you don't t think you can, you are totally wrong. I have said this before and I am saying it again. I knew nothing when I started in 2011, I had a computer. I had no idea how to send a file via e-mail. I had no idea what to do one I got the file back from the formatter. How do I get it uploaded on Amazon. I had no idea that I had more than one drive on the computer. I downloaded a file and had no idea where it went. If you are thinking that you can not learn this. I am proof you can learn if you set your mind to it and are willing to learn. Don't...
