I don’t know what got into me but all of a sudden I am inspired to start writing again. I haven’t done much real writing, only blogging and jotting down some ideas but I feel like I could be onto something with my ideas. If I can just stick to it and execute them.
It is weird that all of sudden I am inspired to write. I have been so tired lately that I haven’t been doing much of anything. I have also been really anxious and irritable. It has sucked. Now this–I have so many ideas (somewhere in the neighborhood of 20) for a series of novels. Good ideas too, totally doable if I put my mind to it and sit my ass down and write. I need discipline!!
Well, part of it is I actually finished reading a book. I know that sounds very paltry but I really have been having trouble concentrating lately, and getting into reading anything. If it takes longer than 5 minutes I’m over it. But I read the Mary Trump book and I thought, if this bitch can do it, so can I! Really, it was poorly written. I thought of my stepmother memoir I have charted out and quite a bit of it written –I should work on that. The only thing is people aren’t interested in what I have to say because my work isn’t a tell all about a famous person. So okay…I still want to work on my memoir and finish it. But then I was thinking about other things I have wanted to write, novels, and the ideas (based on a classic author many people absolutely love) started pouring forth. And I’d have a built in audience for these novels, even if they are shit. I want to make them awesome though, I think I can make them good, worthwhile reads. I just have to quit slacking off. I have lots of research done already as well as lots of reference material already at my fingertips. All there is to do is to make an concerted effort to right on a regular basis. I’d like to make it a goal to have a novel done by May of next year and to be a published author in 2022.
