Write A Million Words In One Year

 My goal for 2021 Is To:

WRITE ONE MILLION WORDS IN 2021

That might sound like a lot, it really isn't if you break it down.

If my math is correct, take 1,000,000 (1 Million) divide it by 365 (Days in one year)=

2,739.  Words Every Day. or round it up to 3,000 words everyday and then it does not seem like so much.

I have a calendar where I am writing my word count down everyday.  It is for me and no one else will see it.

So far:

Friday 1st:  3,000 Words

Saturday 2nd:  4,000 Words

Sunday 3rd:  2,000 Words

Monday 4th:  500 Words

See a pattern here?  I started off strong on the first 2 days and then I started dwindling.  That is okay, because I am not giving up.  I need to catch up a bit.

I will be blogging on my word count and my writing progress.

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. Let us follow our dream together check out my other blog: http://iamwalkingwithgod.blogspot.com/ Write Something Today
