...I worded this goal as “write my novel” (as opposed to “write a novel”) is because I already have the novel written (or at least started) in my head. (I really should say “novels” because the storylines for several different ones have been unfolding in my mind for years now. Isn’t this true for most people?) Getting even just one of those stories out of my head and onto paper so that it could be shared with others would be wonderful.
Lately, an idea for how an old storyline might continue has been playing out in my mind before I fall asleep at night. Scenes for this story pop into my head most nights before I drift off. I keep debating jumping out of bed to stay up and write when the ideas are flowing… but it would probably be better for my sleep schedule and my routine if I just started getting up early to write.
Meh, we’ll see… I just need to remember that “action precedes motivation” and make a start.
