My problem with writing...
1. I get distracted by reading other peoples blogs
2. I start over again and again and again
Solutions:
1. Stop reading other peoples blogs, (until I have written that day).
2. Do not allow myself to start over. When I am done I can edit as much as I want!
Problem solved:
I will let you know. I have written more than in the past. I already have had to stop myself from starting over about twice. I want to read some blogs, but it really won't do me any good as far as finishing my YA novel!

Everybody listen to this!
I needed to hear this! I have been a member of SCBWI for almost a year and I have not gone to one meeting. I tell myself I am too busy, or I don't have enough written to go, and I am worried about meeting other people that write. I have re-started my YA novel 8 times. I want to restart again, but I keep telling myself to just keep writing. Like the little engine...just keep writing...just keep writing. Or like Dora on Finding Nemo...Just keep swimming, just keep swimming. You get the point. I am going to finish.
