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 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...
