Still Writing, Still Plugging Away

 10/12/2020

Words Written:  3,134

Goal:  125,000 Words Written

Deadline :December 31,2020

Words Left To Write:  103,566

I wasn't able to write in the morning, like I like to.  Life got in the way.  I surprised myself,  I wrote in the afternoon, in front of the TV.  

I am doing my best not to skip a day.  I want to write everyday, to keep my mind on the story.

I have new ideas for the beginning.  Then I want to change the character's names.  But I am just not going to do that yet.  My goal is to write a rough draft, no matter how terrible it is.  This is what stops me from writing a longer book.  I keep rewriting and rewriting and I never get to the end.  I hope this time I will finish the book.  No matter how bad the rough draft is.  This is a personal goal for me.  No one will see the rough draft except me.

I haven't written today.  I got up at 6AM and instead of writing, I watched 4 Episodes of the Handmade Series.  So I am going to have to write this afternoon.

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...
