Number 3 is about focus, the coach states that you cannot finish anything until you have focus. This is what is needed to make a career out of writing. It is said that many people can have a one hit wonder but only the career writers have focus. I fit into the category of someone…
I have done it again. Less than a day from my sweeping statement and instead of doing a load of writing planning I was going to do today I have been playing games for the most of the day. Sometimes I wish I could slap myself in the face, although I had a fun day…
Despite all of my future planning and declarations I haven’t managed to do any writing as such this year so far, just some more world building. I think again I am stuck with too many on going projects and how-to books on the go at once, so instead of concentrating on one thing I end…
