Writing Time



Writing can be exhausting.  I was sitting at the computer for about 5 hours yesterday.  That might not seem long to some, but my back hurt, shoulders ached. 

I blogged twice

I wrote 2,000 words

Today I wrote 2,000 words first thing

Then I blogged.

I timed myself as I wrote the 2,000 words.  It took me 1 1/2 hours to write 2,000 words.  I have to admit that I was not as fast as I was yesterday.  I had to force myself to sit at the desk and make my goal.

I find it weird that some days I can write, write and write and others it is  a chore to even write a word.

I do have the rough draft of the series that I am writing done.  It is a very rough draft but the scenes are there and and I have a beginning, a middle and an end. 

So I have book 1 rough draft done.

I have book 2 rough draft done.

In November I will start the NANO and attempt to have Book 3 rough draft done.

Book 4 in the series, I have sort of started outlining that book.  I have the first scene and that is a start.

The reason I want to write all 4 books of this series before publishing them, is so that they all flow together.

I don't want to publish Book 1 and find out in Book 3 I should of included something in Book 1

I want all the Character's Arc's to flow throughout the series. 

So I have written 2,000 words for the past three days.  So far so good.

How is your writing coming?  Are you writing everyday?  That is the key, so I am told.

Write On!

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.

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/
