Deliberate Practice

Ok, I want to get back on the writing bandwagon pretty badly. I have so many ideas lingering in my brain that need a good home in a story.

I can give a whole list of excuses as to why I haven't been writing, starting from dead laptops and ending with no free time. But the odd thing about time: you can always find it when you really need it. And everything else is just excuses. No one to blame but myself.

So I am going to build up one good writing habit at a time. First habit:
Regular time writing. Doing a 10 minute writing exercise of some sort. Every day. If I don't have a computer, I will do it on paper. No excuses. EVERYONE can find 10 minutes somewhere, no matter how busy the day.

I will aim for early morning to start with, but will allow myself the option to figure out the optimal time to do this on any given day. But I want to aim for as regular a time as possible. Habit is everything.

I may or may not be posting what I do (assuming it's done on a computer) here. Haven't decided yet.
