So, why is it that I’m on such a roll with my writing? I’ve written 164 pages in 15 days. And one of those was a no writing pout day for my double rejections. Why am I accepting no excuses these days? How had I gotten into the habit of letting so much take precedence over my writing?
It sure isn’t any easier this time around to carve out the time. The words aren’t coming easier. I still have to force my butt into the chair, and force myself to write even more. But what spooks me out…is that I’m actually keeping at it this time. When I think of a reason I can’t write…I just slap myself and tell myself I’ve heard it before
then I sit down and write.
It’s also weird how I’m so connected to this story because I have my head so into it. For pages and pages each day. I’d have to say my comfortable breaking point for writing is about 6 pages a day. I’m pushing past my comfort zone everyday.
I was talking to my CP’s about this story too. I usually have BIG GMC. Here it is. Here it is again. Here, let me
this again. But this story is more slice of life. It still has the goal, motivation, conflict…but it’s more gmc than GMC. It’s like what happens to these two families in the week where all these secrets are revealed and how they deal with it. Different than I’ve written before. We’ll have to see how well it’s received …
