When the Going Gets Tough
. . . the tough get off the internet.
That’s my challenge for myself this weekend. I have a lot of writing to do. I’ve been slowly eking out the rest of my book, but the writing has been very slow. Too slow.
When I examine what’s going on, the answer is very clear. I stop too many times along the writing road. I check my email here. I check my favorite blogs there. I massage what’s in my Amazon cart. In other words, I never fully get into the zone because I come up for air too often.
So, this weekend, I’ve challenged myself to stay off the net and get some quality writing in. I don’t have a set goal of words, but I do know that I can’t get this manuscript finished, polished, and into the hands of prospective agents if I don’t finish it.
Now that’s motivation.
I agree, I’m a terrible procrastinator myself!
Good luck, Gina (although if you are off the internet you won’t read this comment:))). You’re right, though. I get more done when the internet is down.
