You Don't Have To Write Everyday

 I  don't write everyday.  It is said to write everyday,  That would be the perfect solution if life is perfect.  Life is not perfect.  So far this month I have written 38.500 words.  That is pretty good for me.  If you are on Facebook and are in some writing groups that is great, but there are people who write fast and that is find.  

There is one writer who wrote 50,000 words in a week.  Since this is the month of Nano.  Which is fine but not everyone can do that.  I am in awe of people who do.  There are writers who write and publish a book a month.  A 50,000 word novel a month.

I am in awe of that person who can do that.  I am not one of those people

I write.  I have over 70 plus E-Books and Print Books published on Amazon  All My Books  I have been Self-Publishing since 2011.

I have missed 6 days of writing this month.


How I started


November 17th I wrote 5,000 Words

November 18th I wrote 2,000 Words

November 19th I wrote 3,000 words

Goal:  125,000 Words

Deadline:  December 31,2020

Words written since October 7th 2020: 92,139 Words

This is a rough draft of a book that is almost complete.

The Month of October I wrote 46,639 Words

So far this month I wrote: 38,139 Words.

So don't beat yourself up, if you miss a day of writing.  If you write, you are a writer.

I am a published writer.  I have sold books around the world and I am thrilled about reaching people around the world.  If I can do this, without writing everyday, so can you.

Keep Writing.

I almost have my rough draft of the novel I am writing and I have written in while doing this challenge I created for myself.  You don't have to count words.  You can count pages or you can keep track of the time you spend on writing everyday.  Write it down, so you can keep track that is a great motivator.


Keep writing.  Leave a comment and let me know what what you are working on.

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/
