This year has been much more productive on the writing front than in 2014.  I have added quite a considerable sum of words to my autobiography.  At times the words flow freely and at others as has been the case over the last few weeks it has been hard to get anything written.  I could sit at the computer for long periods of time and only write a sentence or two.  I  emailed Joy (A&A Book Publishing) prior to our arranged meeting and stated my struggles and suggested that the 300 word count no longer seemed achievable but 100 words a day might be more realistic.  I continually have this struggle when I have finished a piece of writing as for some reason it is always difficult to commence a new chapter.  I met Joy, sat down with a cup of tea and she said ‘You are going to write a hundred words right now.’ I was surprised how easy this task was and far exceeded the word count.  Now wherever I go I take my notebook and pen with me and when time permits I sit down and write.  I have no idea why it is easier to write than to type my words directly onto the computer.  Maybe it is due to the fact that I was born in the era of pen and paper and it is easier to tap into that creative side.  I really have no idea why but for now it is working.  When I sit down to type and edit what I have written it again becomes a struggle and takes forever to amend a sentence.  It really goes to show that it is just plain perseverance and commitment that will see this book finished.  72,252 words written, but hey who is counting!#doitregardless#
