I started writing Fae Warrior today! Yay! I logged 1,750 words. This does not sound like much, but when you have nothing it is a lot. I have a long road ahead of me which will not get any shorter unless I just start on it. I always have these grandiose ideas of totally overhauling my writing process. I mean I buy all these books on writing, so isn’t that what I am supposed to do?
My answer: No.
My method is my method. Just start writing. As soon as I do it never fails to amaze me how my brain goes, “Oh, okay, we’re writing now? Right. Well, good because I have been storing up all these great ideas. Let’s do this!” Before I begin all my brain will say is, “Really? We have to start now? How about you give it a few days. Let me rest a bit more.”
Well I say it is time to smack my writer self back in the chair and do this!!!

It is amazing how the brain goes into overdrive when you actually set it to task.
It truly is. Also amazing how I keep forgetting that or more that I lose faith in it happening repeatedly. š
1,750 is a great total. Keep up the good work ::)
