  3. Excuses do not become you

    Today marks the beginning of my 600 word-a-day writing plan until the birth of my child. Not sure I’ll achieve that today. My metaphysical pen has been commissioned for ad-writing and the day has already aged.

    I realize, however, that I’ve just made my first excuse not to write. Inexcusable. Every day will encourage procrastination in seemingly important and justifiable ways.

    I must write; therefore I shall.

  7. im gonna b a gud rightr sum day

    When you haven’t written anything substantial for a while, writing becomes hard. The past few months have become dedicated to writing legal documents and employing boring business jargon. Needless to say, I haven’t written anything creative for quite some time.

    The other day I dusted off my manuscript and gave it a reread. I didn’t hate it. Then an idea for a new story came to mind. I shared it with my wife and she topped it off with her own brand of creativity. We now have what I’m tentatively calling a plotcake. I considered the main character, jotted down a few notes, and started writing.

    I’m excited. It’s a subject I know very well and I feel like it has the makings of a greatly entertaining story. My only concern is my proclivity for procrastination. I’m sanctioning an hour of writing time every day. It’s a small amount, but I have commitment issues when it comes to writing (also why I’ve started blogging).

    We’ll see how it plays out. Baby steps.
