I wrote for an hour today! That’s a refrain I hope to be able to repeat the next 364 days this year. I’ve read it takes 21 days to form a habit. I don’t know about that, but I know how long it takes to break a habit. One moment, one thought, one long, hard day that forces you to just forget. That’s all it takes to fall off the wagon.
As I write I hate the words. I think they are horrible and I’m wasting my time. Something magical happens when I’m not looking, though. When I re-read something from a couple of weeks ago I like it, even sometimes love it. So I need this regimen to force myself through the “I hate it” phase. My overall goal is to know I have tried, that I gave all these dumb stories in my head a chance to live in the fresh air. And maybe I’ll unclutter my brain in the process.
Tomorrow is my birthday. And guess what? I’m going to write.

morgan so glad you are writing i will look forward to reading.
Yay! I love your writing. 🙂
Twenty-one days to form a habit and one second to break it. Don’t I know that! One of my favorite things about your writing is that I can relate to the feelings or to the characters.
