NO EXPIRATION DATE!

A timely message. 

I've been feeling down about the one step forward, two steps backward trajectory my writing career has been on the past couple years. This morning, I ran across the above image on-line and just knew I should share it in case others are going through similar blahs.

I think we all get a little down about our creativity at times. 2015 has definitely been a roller coaster year for me. It didn't end up where I thought it would, but at least I'm still on the tracks.

We all need a little encouragement from time to time and sometimes these internet memes pass in front of me at the most opportune times. Found this at just the right moment, I think. I don't know who originally created, but thanks to whoever did and to the person who shared it where I could see it.

Okay, I should get busy. These stories aren't going to write themselves, are they?

WHAT’S MY MOTIVATION?

This is the actual wallpaper on my laptop computer.

I joined the author roundtable discussion on Sean Taylor’s blog this week. The topic is on writer’s motivations. Sean pulled together an impressive collection of writers this week, including Ashton Adams, Bill Craig, Erwin Roberts, H. David Blalock, John Neal, John White, Lee Houston Jr., Motivation, Ralph Angelo, and Bobby Nash.

You can read the full round table discussion here.

From the site:
What's My Motivation?
For this week's roundtable, let's talk motivation. Writers write, as the cliche goes, but why do they write? For money, for the sheer joy of it, to be famous? Anyone who lives the live of an author will tell you that sometimes it can be hard to pinpoint exactly why someone would choose to do this crazy, solitary line of work. But don't just take my word for it.

Staying Motivated in 2012!

My new desktop wallpaper. That's one way to stay motivated. :)
There's a lot of writing to come from me in 2012 so I need all the motivation I can get.

I ended 2011 with a nice writing day. Made some nice progress on my stories for the Tales of The Rook anthology and the Lance Star: Sky Ranger Vol. 4 anthology. Planning to do more tomorrow.
