Write Every Day

Write Every Day

I suffer from the typical writer’s block. I see a blank screen and want to run. I think of editing some old work and cringe. I’ve been wanting to write on a regular basis for, oh, a decade. Not ten days, not ten months, but ten years. When oh when will that day come where I learn to write on a regular basis? John Muldoon’s Monthly Experiments has me thinking that I discovered (or he did) something of a secret: if I can manage to do something for a month, maybe it can become a habit. The nice part about the “monthly” is that is makes it bite size, I can handle it, it doesn’t scare me, I can achieve it. If it’s a big disaster, oh well, it was only a month. Also, as John points out, hey, it was just an experiment, so I don’t have to talk about failure, I can just talk about what happened. So here we go, it’s November 1, 2012. I’m hoping, I’m even smiling to myself (no, really) that I’ll look back on this day with pride and say that was the day that it all began. Whew, exhilarating.

Ernest Hemingway wrote in a letter to F. Scott Fitzgerald:

“For Christ sake write and don’t worry about what the boys will say nor whether it will be a masterpiece nor what. I write one page of masterpiece to ninety one pages of shit. “

There are several writing challenges going on this month (National Novel Writing Month, Copyblogger’s EBookWriMo Challenge, I’m sure there are more), but I’m not planning on writing an e-book or a novel this month (although I’d be happy to take up that challenge some other month!). This month, I just want to produce. My rules are that I have to publish something on any site I have publishing rights to every day this month. That’s it. Ready? I am.

April 2013: I’m finding more and more people who are doing similar challenges. It’s great to share the pain–and the gain. Here are a few, do you know any more? Would love to hear about them. 
September 2014: If I’m only looking to write and enjoy writing, I’m succeeding.  You Don’t Need to Grow Your Audience. You Need This Instead.

Update August 2013: I’m enjoying finding other writers who share similar passions. If they post (usually on Repossible), I’m adding it below as I edit it and, frankly, editing can be more of a job than writing! It’s also interesting to “play” editor: trying to help them find their voice, trying to stick with the theme of the site, etc. When I put their post in for an “editing” job for me, I’m also putting another writing post in for myself. Just a math geek that way.
I’m even going to keep a running tally of posts here, counting this one as the first.

Cameron Highlands, Malaysia were a respite from the wet heat of the lowlands in Malaysia. It was cool, surrounded by tea plantations and an ideal place to write.

    Bradley, you know I love this post, but I’m gonna say it anyway. I freaking love this post!

    You’re one of the best writers I know, and I’m so excited to see where this experiment takes you. Thanks for the shout-out, too!

            Whoa, you own a Daily Deal Aggregator? Can’t wait to learn more about that! I love that we’re in the same “big space” (online, marketing, trying to make some dosh) but the services and products can be just that much different. Thanks for stopping by!

    Hi, Bradley. How on earth did you every find the time? I’m facing four blog posts and many little posts, as I launch my new site, and I feel completely overwhelmed by the task. Could be that I’m too much of a perfectionist? Please share your secret for making it happen! My best to you and congratulations. Leslie

      Thanks for the note, Leslie!

      That’s the secret: I didn’t “find” the time, I “made” the time. I’ve learned that you can’t find (extra) time, you have to create it. So it’s a balance, it’s dedication, it’s sacrifice. But when you’re sacrificing something you care about less for something that you care about more, then it’s not really a sacrifice, is it?

      If you’re asking yourself if you’re too much of a perfectionist then I’m going to tell you that I can say with 100% confidence that … you’re too much of a perfectionist.

      But my big secret for Making it Happen was to … Make it Happen.

      I just did it. No questions, no excuses: ever, at all, no matter what.

      You can do anything you want, you just have to really, really want it. What do you want?
