Writing can be rote. For me it needs to be. Just slacking on these last two days has made me both jittery because I didn’t write anything and chill because I gave myself an out prior to the weekend.
So what i learned about myself is that if I give myself an out, I will gladly take it. AND if I take a mere glimpse in the way back machine, that is exactly what I did for the last decade. Regardless of the various excuses I came up with, I left the craft.
Now I know two days isn’t a trend, but it takes a conscious effort before something becomes rote.
Now I just need to add some pages to the manuscript.
Cheers!

I’m in the ‘write every day’ camp, and while other people have suggested that I mix things up a bit (such as doing blog admin duties one day in place of writing), I feel like I have to stick to a schedule or else this pursuit doesn’t feel real to me, or something like that. So yeah, here’s to the rote life!

Exactly! I inderstand the writing is writing concept. I’ve heard it repeatedly. Somehow though if I am not contributing to the manuscript, a blog- while writing- is not the same.
