Write. That’s what I’ve read several times from experienced writers. When you feel dry and don’t know what to write – write. When you’re exhausted and don’t feel like writing – write. When you’re stuck and can’t think of the right way to phrase a sentence – write.

That’s definitely the only reason I started writing at 9:00 tonight, after I was done with all my other obligations today (at least all the ones I couldn’t put off until tomorrow!). Well, that and the fact that I have this blog that I started to compel me to write even when I don’t feel like I have it in me. 🙂

Tonight I felt much more inclined to curl up on the couch and read someone else’s book than exert exponentially more brain power writing my own. But I’m happy to report that I resisted the urge and opened my book file. I didn’t even stare at the screen for quite as long tonight as I did Monday before the words started flowing. Actually, it was probably more like a trickle, but at least there are words on the page now that weren’t there an hour and a half ago.
