Hey you, yeah, YOU.
So how is that New Year’s resolution to write more coming?
I know, I know. January is COLD, and you have to recover from the holidays, and everyone is back at work demanding why the things that needed to get done on a schedule are behind like half the workforce hadn’t been off for two weeks of the last six.
You are exhausted, stressed, and miserable – maybe even feeling a real cold coming on.
I get it. Believe me.
So does Lucy Blue. Back in October, she wrote a post Ways to Keep Writing When You Can’t. Look them over and see if you can get back in the saddle on those resolutions. Remember, just because you slipped doesn’t mean you have failed.

WRITING EXERCISE: Comment below what your New Year resolution is for writing and how far you made it before your first slip. What do you plan to do next?
***
(1) Keep the momentum going from NaNoWriMo 2019 – at least an hour in chair every day, doing at least 500 sellable works. (2) Finish and publish two books this year. (3) Keep up on blog and vlog and patreon.
Tax start put a dent on this right from the start – but that doesn’t mean I’m not going to continue to try every day this year. This is my year!
the holidays can knock one off the writing horse — whether it’s all the family stuff or working a lot of overtime. I like the just write advice. I’m getting back on the horse but trying not to be too pushy with myself about not writing every day — just a few times a week is a good start.
