Two months have passed since then. Despite the chaos of summer, The Plot Sisters have met on schedule. Much writing has been done, but very little blog posting. And that's okay, right?
Right.
Because not all of us find as much value in blog posting as I do. I use my personal blog for communicating with my friends and family, but also as a means to practice my craft. I use this blog as a way of connecting to people, but it, too, helps me practice the craft. I have found, over time, that--get this--I am a better writer because of all the writing I do! Who knew that practice could do that? (Wink, wink.)
But writing a blog takes up a lot of time. And by a lot, I mean A LOT. I could probably work on some of my short pieces or clean my house, improve my lectures or spend time with friends. I choose to use my time the way I want to, and you, my friends, do the same.
What I want to emphasize, though, is that in order to become the writer you envision, you must write and write often. If you don't want to work on a blog, then simply journal. Or jot down some poetry. Or write paragraphs that sum up your day, or start a new piece. I don't care in what way you do it, but as Nike says, "Just do it." Now.
Happy Writing!
