Tomorrow it will be 3 years since I turned 50 and decided to take my writing seriously.
Since then I have self-published 3 short works, but I’ve still not completed my first novel. I’m not going to beat myself up too much, as I can see now that I spent too much time doubting myself and jumping from one course to the next to try and find a way of writing that worked for me. After just completing Plotstormers with @Writer’sHQ, I feel as though I have written more quality work in the last month, than I have in the last year.
I’m understanding now what my novel is about and I’m feeling confident that I will get my book finished this year. I’m under no illusions that there’s still a lot of hard work ahead, but I do think that I’ve finally found a method that works for me.
Onward and upward…
