New Writers Need to Write Everyday

It doesn’t matter what you write, just write!  You can write a blog, article, in a journal, or a chapter of your book.  Write now, edit later.  I have not been writing enough, myself.  I have been spending too much time reading about writing. That’s why I needed to write this blog because I didn’t get the writing done I wanted to today.  Everything on the Internet I find about writing I spend a lot of time reading it.  There is nothing wrong with getting more information on what you love to do, but to be successful with your writing you have to write.  If you spend all your time reading about it and never get around to writing; that makes you a reader not a writer.  It falls into the discipline category.  Just make a specific time you read about writing or the ezines you subscribe to on writing.  Maybe an hour in the morning or hour before you go to bed.  This way you will have time to do some writing.   You can find yourself reading for hours and then your too tired to write.  There is a lot of great information out there on writing and great websites, too.  They do help motivate but you got  to know when to quit reading and start writing.  Just write something everyday.  Remember, practice makes perfect and it will help you get those higher paying writing jobs.
