Last night I decided I am going to utilize my fast running blog to hold myself accountable for running AND writing.
I'm writing a memoir from my life experiences of 2011-2014 titled "Finding the Silver Lining." Currently I have over 44,000 words but over the past few months, my progress has been slower than molasses in January. I often go days or a week without opening the document at all. I wish I could say its because of my lack of time but really I'm just not focusing well and allowing myself to feel overwhelmed and then distracted.
Last night, Aaron gave me the idea to just commit to writing a minimum of 50 words every day, and I'll still be making progress little by little. Once I get going, I will often write much more than 50 words per day, but I just want to break it up and write on one topic at a time. Then, I'll have to go through and edit the whole thing and meld it all together, but that will be a different project titled "Pages edited in my book."
SO. "Words written in my book," is not some fancy new shoe brand. And its not miles, its words that I write each day. My goal is to finish the book before the end of 2014.
