Practice Contentment with Your Writing

All too often we are critical of not only our writing but also how well (or badly) we used our writing time. I have a suggestion. No matter how long you sit down to write, no matter how much or how little you write, no matter how "good" or "bad" you deem it, congratulate yourself and your Inner Writer for the time spent.

All time spent writing is good time.

"There's nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so."
~William Shakespeare

  • The post re valuing our writing time no matter how short or long really struck home with me. I am writing more regularly than I ever have. But it is not, what I (FOOLISHLY?) desire--to wit, 9-l2 a day or some such neat timetable. I write when I can get myself to do it. And each week I manage to write a reasonable amt of material. I know and see that I am becoming more aware as a writer of my style, my patterns, and what I am (in a deep fog) trying to produce.
    So, this post to me was on the money. Thanks. Claire
