Since I’ve heard that question more than once in my life (the answer is almost always yes), I figured I’d prove it:
I just signed up (on impulse, like buying that pair of purple heels I picked up on clearance last year at Macy’s and have worn only once…today…) for yet another writing challenge: 70 Days of Sweat at http://70daysofsweat.com/wordpress/archives/71
Why nuts? I just started a course on coaching writers through creative issues (12 week class), am busier in the day job than I’ve ever been before (7-5 most days) and am coming into basketball season (I keep scorebook for two, sometimes three teams a week..or twice a week). And now I’m committing to writing a minimum 750 words (3 little pages) a day. Wow. Even I think I’m nuts!
But I’m excited. While I’m enjoying the brainstorming process for the upcoming story, I also don’t want to use that as an excuse to not write (pet peeve: writers who’ve been working on the same “story” for more than two years). Might as well dive in now….
Why am I here and not writing? I have 3 pages to finish…..
