A writer is...

someone who finds life fascinating, all or some of it. And are compelled to share their fascination, their marveling.

I love Google, Bing....the internet

I'm taking a break from procrastinating and getting some writing done. It's so cool to just come online to find the right day of the week for a date in 1935. What did writer's do fifty year's ago???

Complete

Just finished the Money seminar last Wednesday. (Landmark). Wow!! Lit a fire, solved a dilemma and moved me into action.

I nearly finished the first rough draft of the novel I've been alternately working on and procrastinating for four years now. Almost five. It was 75%+ complete at the end of NaNoWriMo. Today I completed the rework backwards into an outline that shores up the storyline and....completes it. For the first time I have a complete outline of the entire story. In other words, breakthrough! An ENDING!!!! A beginning, a middle and an end. What most folks call a complete story :)

Now I go back. Write again from scratch. From the beginning. Yes. I seem to like completing in a single movement.

Who doesn't prefer the single movement and plop. I mean plot! (Too juvenile?)

Anyway. I'm delighted, excited, ecstatic.

And procrastinating....Again.
