I get emails from the NaNo forums everyday. I am truly amazed at how much whining and procrastinating goes on when people have a goal. Maybe the reason writing is such a solitary practice is because people can't stand to listen to us...
I have found it pretty empowering to drink tea all day and write until I run out of ideas. Then I get on the elliptical, watch a movie while I do it and come back to the story refreshed and with a brain sparked up on endorphins. Woo! talk about a buzz!
"I know it feels like you have all these options
and when you make a decision, you lose a world of possibilities.
But the reality is, until you make a decision,
you have nothing at all."
as told to Janet Fitch by her therapist
