My journey to completing my first novel

A blank slate
Realised that the whole weekend has gone by without me writing a single word.  Logged on this morning and have a mind blank, all ideas seem to have moved on and don't feel so fresh anymore.  Think I will have to sit down, read some old ideas and then just start writing and not worry about it.





It's a weird thing, I feel like my head is empty, there are no thoughts (I am sure there are actually thoughts lol, buried deep and just not registering consciously), a blank slate, that can only be a good thing right?





If it is really blank, then you can write anything.  Nothing in your head means no guilt about not following through, no guilt about not writing that story you have wanted to write for ages, but never made the time.  You can write anything, nothing is jostling for your attention.  An opportunity to try something different?  Maybe. Now I have written myself into the excitement of 'I can write anything I want'.
