A Writer's Life

I know that I have not been here everyday. I am sorry for that. June 1st is tommorow and I have new goals for the month of June. I am taking my last writing class. www.terryspear.com I am writing 1,000 words a day in long hand. I am going to have Chapter 10 done by the end of the month. Summer is here and it is hot! Yea!!! I have a small fan by my laptop to keep it from getting to hot. I love summer, but I still need to write. I am about to start Chapter 6. I am writing a chapter a week. In July I will start to type in my pages I wrote in long hand. It is good to have goals. Don't forget about others. The brazil Mission Team from Mountain Home, Ar is leaving this month for Brazil. Might want to check out their website www.amor-brazil.org What are your writing goals for June and this summer???/

I know that it is hard to find the time to write. I would rather be sitting in front of the television with a back of chips and dip. I need to write. So I turn the television off, stay off the internet and write. I write in my car if I am early for work. I write on my breaks. Wherever I can fine five minutes. Stay off the internet. Turn off the televison. Write or you will never finish your book. How do you find time to write?? Where is the strangest place you have written?

Sorry I haven't blogged lately. I have been busy with my writing on line course, and have been writing every day. Maybe not a lot, but at least 100 words a day. I am doing something everyday to forward my writing. It is not easy. I need to finish my book for my own sanity. So I will try to post more often. I just don't know how people do it. Do you have any advice on how you write everday??? How do you do it???

My goal is to write a chapter a week and so far I am doing that. Although it is only my second week. i am writing everyday and that is my main focus. I am also taking another writing class this month, so I am doing both. Not sure how others reach their goals, but people are getting published and I want to be one of them. Write every day Make goals What are your writing goals?

I was at work yesterday and I had an idea. There are 28 weeks left in the year. My WIP has 20 chapters. I am going to write 1 chapter a week and by the end of the year my WIP will be done. Sure I will have to do some rewrite and edit, but it will bew 400 pages printed out and in the computer. I have been up since midnght and have been writing. I am going to get up 3 hours earlier, before I have to go to work. If not now? When? This is my time and nothing is going to stop me. What is your writing Goal? What do you want to do this year? Leave me a comment.

I write cause that is what I do. Am I published. Not yet. That has nothing to do with it. I wake up wanting to go to the computer and write. I carry a notebook with me, everywhere I go. I write cause that is who I am. I will never give up, cause I know that I will be published some day. You are reading my blog, so I am published. Blogging is my start to publication. Do you have a blog? Makes you write everyday and people will read what you write. Something to think about. I write everyday. I set goals. I never give up. What are you working on? Leave a comment and let me know.

Not writing enough. Set daily goals. Word count. Page count. It will help you keep track of how much you are writing. Writing is not my problem. It is the editing that gets me tied now, and then I start rewriting the thing over and I am back at the beginning. I am not going to do it this time. I am going to finish my book and get it published. I have a handle on where it is going and how it is going to end. So I write every day, no matter what. My goal is to finish it by the end of the year. I do think that is a doable goal What is your goal?
