Procrastination

Not another damn blog from a wannabe author? I hear you cry, or at least think loudly.  Yes.  Sorry. 

Actually I'm not sorry.  I've written for years, I have even been published, although I am bending that term for my own ends to the point it may well snap.  I am not a published writer of thriller/crime fiction writer...yet. I have no doubt that I will succeed, eventually.  Is that because I am truly gifted? No.  With a lot of graft I can write well, have received good reviews on various writing forums etc.. The reason I have faith in myself is my sheer tenacity.  I don't give up if I want something badly enough, although I am prone to procrastination.

And this dear reader (I hope there is at least one), is the very purpose of this post.  Do you procrastinate? Do you like me, put off the actual writing with research, editing and just one more look at Twitter?  Do you not change the beds until you are about to reuse them? 'Forget' to make that doctors appointment? If any of these examples apply to you, then I am flogging an ex equine, but, if you have overcome the dreaded lethargy of actually doing something, please share.


This blog is not aimed to advise, it is a discussion point, may well occasionally be a rant fix and a blog of my life.  But I want to hear your stories too.
