Week 4- Day 16

'Write down who you were, who you are and what you want to remember'- Natalie Goldberg

A great starting point for the day, especially when I'm feeling a little brain dead and things are taking a while to wake up and get going. The trouble is that I have too much floating around in my head, but have yet to make sense of it all. I know I just want to get on and write, but not sure where to start, story of my life really!

' A real writer doesn't want to write, a real writer has to write'

'Never apologise for how much you love to write'

'Think, Write, Create.'

'There is no wrong or right, just write.'

'Writing is a way of life. It's not just something I do, it's who I am.'

I have so many things that I've started and not finished. I know it doesn't matter if you keep starting new things, so long as you are writing, but still get that feeling telling me to go back and see where I can take them, and that's what's going round in my head today. I'm wondering if I need to look over what I've done so far and write some kind of plan/ outline of where I want the story to go. I have a tendency to just sit and write whatever comes into my head, which isn't a bad thing, but also means I overwrite and feel I'm going away from what I want to say. I feel my stories  would be much better if I laid out a clearer plan of where it's going. So that's my next task for today sorted....
