ISWG (JAN): Motivation & Procrastination

It’s time for another edition of The Insecure Writer’s Support Group, hosted by Ninja Captain, Alex J. Cavanaugh.



I have learned a lot last year about writing:




I've been improving my grammar.
I've been researching parts of my novels more.
I started using Scrivener--which for me is the most amazing writing program in the world!



But, I have also learned a few things about myself:




Although I'm a hard worker, I will place other things--cleaning, cooking, walking my dog, pretty much anything--in front of my writing. And when I leave my writing to the end of the day, I just don't get it done. I NEED to write in the mornings. That means NO PROCRASTINATION. So, that's one thing I'm going to be working on this year, getting up earlier and writing.
Also, for me, motivation to write comes from inspiration and that takes meditation on my writing. So, I hope to spend some time before I write, getting excited about what I'm going to write about. MOTIVATION TAKES MEDITATION.
