write a best-selling novel

Heh, I doubt my best-selling novel will start with those words. I miss writing and really want to get back into the habit. With work and family, though, it seems I barely have enough time. Probably the biggest thing that I can do right now with regards to this goal is to manage my time better so that I can actually sit down and start writing again. I’ve got an idea for a story. I need to flesh it out a bit more but I have a good feeling about it.

I’m reading a book by Stephen King called “On Writing”. The book is an autobiographical writing class, so to speak. The first half of the book details King’s life while growing up. The second half of the book deals with his writing style and how he writes and how he thinks anyone else should write, if they were inclined to. So far, I’ve really enjoyed the book. I’m hoping that by reading it that it will spark something in my to write a novel.
