Dear diary,
Okay,
Im working this story structure out. I met with my editor yesterday that I can do this. Im not so sure but sitting for 3 months and doing nothing is a sure thing of failing.
So, let's try writing this book.
Her tips are to:
- Set aside a time, every day and just write
- It doesn't have to be buy chapters but best to finish a chapter once I start one.
- Don't overthink it. Just write
What's standing in my way is:
- Fixing the same time everyday
- Lack of discipline
- Overthinking it
- Doubting myself ( Is my life that interesting?)
5.Prioritising time and workload in the day
So, as of now, this minute, today, I have decided to:
- Write here instead and work the fears all out
- Get feedback from writers and friends who can give me tips
- Be disciplined and just write
- Get this book written while having fun.
- Introduce myself, the children , my life through photos too. This book of mine is going to cost me a bomb-I have to pay for photos and drawings myself, if I want them in the book. Let's see.
Take deep breaths and jump in the deep end of the water
Just jump!
Here's one of my favourite photos taken outside my hotel room in Part Dickson, Malaysia. I love water and sunsets!
Another shot of the place the kids and stayed in (Port Dickson, Malaysia)
The children are waking up. Have to get ready for school.
Got to go!
