I am starting a writing challange today that will last through this whole week. Five days right? It doesn't sound like much, but it is when trying to write a book much less hte first page of that book. UGGH!! So difficult!!! But so worth it!!!! CAn I do it? S*@t. I have too, that's the whole reason I got a computer in the first place. No, not to play faceboook games. To actually write and make some kind of meaning out of my life because my whole life I have tried and failed to write. I was off to a great start in high school but it suddenly dropped off after I graduated. And now...16 years later I'm still at that nervous stage of writing the first word of my first book. Who cares if I can go back and edit that first word or even that first sentence, I still have to put down on paper or computer screen a letter that will start this crazy idea of mine and make it into a story worth reading.
I have to write the first page by 3:00pm today, I started at 7am. I;m still working on it!! Is it supposed to take this long?!
I just finished the first day's challenge!! Which was writing that dreaded first page, it wasn't the greatest, but it was a start. Once you start writing, the words just start flowing! In some cases at least...
