Hello Fans.
Time is every writers worst enemy. I sit down to finish chapter 6 and am 9 pages in and realized that 4 hours have gone by. If only I could think and type faster. Coming up with ideas of what to write and how to say them aren't the difficult part. It's actually doing it.
The common theme between all the blog entries that I have put here is simple. Discipline. Whenever I sit here and start to chug away on a chapter, I find that my eyes start to wonder. Hmm how about some facebooking for a few minutes, get some inspiration. Or, maybe, pick a different song to listen to. Wait, I think my stomach is growling. Well, after finding myself a million distractions, it ends up being that when I go back to writing I find disappointment in that I have only written 1 sentence.
I wonder why, right?!
Thankfully chapter 6 is going well, already getting into the teens of page numbers. The story line is great, and for those of you who have gotten to glimpse at the first chapter, well you know sort of where its heading.
Thus far, as you might have guessed. I am back in Honolulu and working again. I am finding that its easier to write here with all the beautiful sunshine. To catch you up on what has been going on, I moved back from NYC and have been working strange hours as a nanny. Which meant being tired 24-7, since working in the heat doesn't usually agree with me. So no energy to even write in my journal. YIKES. Luckily though I have been blessed in finding a great office job in 3 days and start tomorrow! YAY. So a 9-5 job means routine, schedule, and of course weekend time to write, write, write. I have made a goal to finish by the end of the year. So here is to finishing chapter 6 this week and starting chapter 7.
