thank you for your kind words but I’m sure you can tell that I’m a rookie at this “writing” stuff. Yet I refuse to let that detour me.

You have such a nice way of looking at procrastination, much more productive to say the least.

I’ll make sure to stop by and say Hi!

We follow each other on twitter, and you “are honored” to follow me? I’m not worthy, it’s the other way around.
Procrastination is a problem some days, so true!
But please don’t forget: “A writer is working when he’s staring out of the window.” Burton Rascoe.
If that’s true, I was working pretty hard to say.
Keep in touch,

thank you for stopping by. Nothing is guaranteed in life, especially the outcome of a personal endeavor such as writing a Novel. Even when it’s based on factual events and ‘real’ people, all of the obstacles, whether actual or perceived only serve to create an atmosphere of uncertainty. Which when you think about it only adds to the excitement.

You mentioned your decision to procrastinate and to do ‘nothing’ based on fear and uncertainty. I can so relate to that. I too want to write my Memoirs and the reasons you mentioned are also huge factors in why I haven’t written mine as well, among others of course. But I want to thank you for opening my eyes. I had to ask myself if I want to write purely for monetary gain or because I actually have something I want to express. For me, it’s the latter and so regardless of whether or not I ever get published, I’m going to write a Novel. Just so I can experience the feeling of accomplishment that I have wanted for a very long time.

I hope you take another look inside and decide to write yours as well. Even if no one else ever reads it, at the very least you will know you did it. For you.

2010: the year of no more excuses.

For example, having a to do list and not knowing how to prioritize it is one thing. However, take an example such as myself and my desire to write a book. It started with my memoirs, assuming that a multitude of people would find my life entertaining enough to read an entire book about it. Not feeling certain about that, as well as the fact that it is difficult when you are using real people in your book, I thought I could capitalize on my relationship experience and write something fun and useful for those caught in a bad situation. Well, maybe that’s been overdone up to this point. So… that leaves me not knowing which direction to turn so I just do what??? I do nothing. Procrastination. Caused by fear or uncertainty.

Anyway, enough rambling. I’m glad you have found a way to move forward and stop putting things off until tomorrow!
