Moses Siregar III Nice quote on writing and "discipline" from a 1964 article in The Writer by suspense author Patricia Highsmith, writer of 'The Talented Mr. Ripley' ... see my first comment for the quote.

"When writing becomes a habit and a necessity, the writer need never give a thought to discipline, because writing is a pleasure. Then friends and relatives will say, "Ah, what discipline!" on seeing the writer at work, not realizing that it would take more discipline than they dream of for him to spend the next few hours in their company."

Moses Siregar III After 13 days, I'm more than half-way to the NaNoWriMo goal of 50K words this month. I'm sitting at 27K right now, making this by far my most productive month of writing. It has taken exceptional focus for me to write this much, though. It's pretty intense, but I'm also really enjoying it.

Moses Siregar III A 1938 article called: "The Professional Writer" by Somerset Maugham. It ends up as a profound piece about the spiritual liberation of the writer/artist. I found this in the 'Classic Writing' section of the writermag.com website.

Moses Siregar III After writing more than 2K words today, I changed my mind. I AM going to do NaNoWriMo this month (National Novel Writing Month, which is always in November). The goal: 50K words. You need to average 1,667 words a day to "win." 1 down, 29 more days to go. Here's my spartan member page at the NaNo website where I'll be updating my monthly totals daily:

Btw, thanks Jenny. Just knowing that some people I know would read it makes the whole idea of it that much sweeter. It's almost the biggest part of it for me. I really, really like the story, too. I actually tear up sometimes when I feel it all coming together. It's incredible for me.

October report: 16K words written (55K total). The bad: less than last month's 21K. The good: my last 4 days writing were all 1K+ days (been visualizing writing 1,500 words a day, and when I have written recently I'm getting close to that). Also learned that drinking a beer and writing does not work for me (makes me ve...ry unproductive). I'm excited for a new month and will try to be inspired by NaNoWrMo. Wish me luck!Devamı

NaNo is National Novel Writer's Month, which is always 'observed' in November. To participate you're supposed to write 50,000 words in that month. I'm not necessarily going for that, but I'm inspired by the idea of it. If I wasn't in the middle of a novel project already, I might've tried it this year. But you're supposed to start a new project for NaNo. There's a NaNo website for anyone that's curious.

Therese Willette Also a fan of Psycho-Cybernetics (1960) since 1969, first read when found my Scorpio Nurse/mother reading and practicing this as she healed her patients in the hospital. It became my total obsession and the platform for my interest in NeuroLinguistic Programming. Still remember the first moment I found this book (revolutionary for its time).

Inspired by Maltz's 1960 PSYCHO-CYBERNETICS (over 30 million sold--it's the basis of many later self-help teachings, and it's excellent), I've been practicing visualizing myself writing as I wish to, happy with book in hand, etc. (vividly experience the process and the goal with all senses, every day). I've noticed tha...t it's getting me to the computer earlier every day to write after just a few days. Pretty neat!Devamı

Nice, I've heard Lamott's book compared to Brenda Ueland's "If you want to write." I've been reading lots of good books on the craft of writing fiction recently. I'll have to post about them at some point.
