This morning, I have woken to the sudden need to write. I find it difficult to get started sometimes, though, and so I thought perhaps coming on this blog would help me out. I get easily distracted. Even as I wrote that, I started to change channels on the TV. But who can blame me? Pinky & the Brain is WAY funnier than Futurama. So I have to keep writing. Even if it's mindless dribble.
I have a goal this year. Two months from now, I plan on starting the large job of getting my book published. The first step will be getting it edited, which will probably not be 100% fun. Even though a few people have read the book now and told me it was good, I still have my suspicions. And I fear of its marketability. Thankfully, it hasn't totally discouraged me from continuing on. Two other books in the works now. One a followup to my previous book, that will get published eventually. haha The other my first fantasy.
Currently, my attentions are on the fantasy. As I haven't even had the first book published, I can't justify spending so much time on a sequel that might not see the light of day. Being realistic is contradictory to being a writer, I hear, but I'm too old to be fanciful. At least, I'd like to think so.
