So… I’m writing this book. Right now I’m not really having writer’s block so much as lack of motivation. Or… lack of focus, rather. This is actually the first time in a long time that I have been motivated to keep with a story idea. I’m actually pretty excited about the idea, but I’m having a problem because of all of the thoughts being tossed around in my brain. Focus. I need focus.
Is it weird that I feel slightly ridiculous saying I’m writing a book? I’ve always been a writer–stories, poems, non-fiction, etc. But I’ve also always been a fairly insecure writer… or embarrassed maybe. Shy. A combination of those three things, really. It’s not often that I share things I’ve written with friends and family. I need to get over it. It’s just so personal! It’s my work… something I’ve created… and people are pretty damn critical of books. I know I am! Again, I need to get over it.
Time for me to take advantage of the pool in our apartment complex.
