Simple Writing Plan

If you plan your writing one day in advance, it is much easier. Here's how it works.

On the day before, choose your theme for the next day. Write down the main idea and put it in your pocket. Look at it several times, especially just as you get into bed at night. Look at it the next morning until whatever your writing time is scheduled.

It is surprising how much the unconscious will produce if given time. Often we will be amazed at how creative it gets.

Writing Is the Fun Part

Writing, (rewriting and editing) is the fun part. Publishing and marketing is the other part. A necessary party if it is to be read.

Three Paragraphs Daily

Write three paragraphs a day.
Anyone can do that much.
Or merely a hundred-fifty words daily.
In time the pages will stack up
and begin adding up to something.
