I’m not happy with the progress of my writing. I sit in front of my computer and it is just not flowing out of me (which it should be flowing out of me) and that is frustrating me. I’m having a problem getting my words on the page. I know what is going to happen in the story for at least three chapters but expressing what is happening seems to be very difficult to convey on the page for me.
“They” (published authors) say don’t worry about editing or punctuation just write what comes to mind. I have trouble “just writing” it’s very hard for me to do. I have to punctuate and capitalize my sentences it doesn’t feel right if I don’t. I even have to capitalize and punctuate when I text or IM my friends. It’s the critic in me that won’t allow me to “just write”. I need to teach myself to let go of Ms. Perfect because she does not exist no matter how much I want her to or think she does.
Tomorrow’s another day.
