My writing focus has been misplaced.
Comments, likes and retweets have become my focus, not writing.
I have put off the writing I need to do.
It’s time for things to change.
I’d like to invite you to join me in a writing revolution.
It’s time to write what you REALLY want to write about.
I will be focusing more on fiction than on blogging.
For others it might mean blogging less to just blog better.
Or blogging about different topics you’ve never touched on before.
Or working on ebook, poem or short story.
This writing revolution can look completely different to each person.
I am not saying to abandon your blog.
I don’t want tell you what to do.
It is your decision to make.
I must warn you—this isn’t going to be easy.
The voices in your head will attack.
Challenges will come.
But the good news is this—you won’t be alone.
We are united in this together.
For the entire month of October, I’d like to challenge you to join me in a writing revolution.
I’m calling this movement Writers Unite, where the focus is on the writing you REALLY want to do.
What does this involve?
These 4 steps:
1. I will do the writing I know I should be doing; be it blog posts, essays, a short story, poem, novel or something else.
2. I will write for myself first, not to please anyone else.
3. By the end of October, I will share at least a portion of this writing on my website.
4. I will encourage and support others that are participating by using the hashtag #writersunite as much as possible
Will you join the revolution? What is the one thing you would really like to work on?
