Story Telling Is Universal

Story Telling has been around since the beginning of time:

Writing is Universal.  Writing is power.  Writing is strength.  Writing is personal.

In today's world, with all this high tech, the younger people are not learning how to write.  They are learning to type.  

When was the last time you received a letter or a postcard?  What would you rather have, a postcard of someone texting you?

I am old school.  I like to write letters.  I like to send cards.  I just made out my Christmas Cards for this year, and at this moment, they are in the mail box, waiting to be picked up my the mail service.  People don't send Christmas Cards any more.  It is not because of computers.  People have gotten lazy and don't really care anymore.

I care.  One day there might be a world without books and no one writes anymore.  Everything will be on the screen.  No human contact.  No human emotions.  We will be just like robots,, staring at a screen.

I don't want to live in that world.

I am a writer.  I write.  I write letters.  I send cards.  I write books.  That is why I publish E-Books and Print Books so I can hold my books in my hand and give them to someone.  I want a book signing of my books, so I can sign my books and hand it to a person who stood in line to meet me.  

I am a writer.  That is who God created me to be.  I write,  I publish.  

I have not blogged for the last couple of days.  So here is my update:

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.
