Word Count Update

 It has been five days since I blogged.  I haven't written anything for 4 days.  Sinus Headaches.  I wrote in long hand and attempted to write on the computer but didn't do much, so I am not counting those words.  Might of been a hundred words or more.  But I am not counting them.

Yesterday, Headaches were gone.  My head was clear and I wrote 5,000 words.

I did finish a rough draft of the novel I was working on.  Yesterday I started working on the next novel in the series.  

Words to Date 102,139

I started October 7, 2020 counting the words I write.

Goal 125,000

Deadline:  December 31, 2020

Words left to write;  22,861

So if you want to write and worry that you don't write everyday, You can see by what I am doing, you do not have to write everyday, though it is better if you do.  

I now have a rough draft of a novel that I can rework and am starting the next novel of the series.  

Even on the days, I didn't write, I wrote in longhand a bit or just jotted down some notes and thoughts.  I was always thinking about my book.  Some would call that writing also.  

Not sure what I will do today, but I do plan to write some.

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.
