But more important that the goal is what am I actually going to do to achieve it. I have broken my addiction to SPP, and my Sookie MS page. I am breaking my twitter addiction tho it does keep drawing me back in. But like it did. I’ve spent very little time on it lately. So that is a start but what I need to do is actually put together a plan on how I am going to get my writing to the point I want it to be.

I need to work out what writing I am moving to the head of the pile to work on, how much time I want to put in to it, when I can put time into it, what I want to achieve in that time. It is unrealistic to say I want to put 8 hours a day to my writing and write a minimum of 5000 words a day. I have a life that needs my attention. I have a son that I want to have the benefits of being at home with a loving mother who wants to teach him so he doesn’t show up at school on the first day unsure which way up a book should go. And if mummy is sitting on her computer all day it doesn’t happen, no matter how “important” what I am doing is.

So today I am going to work on my writing when I can but I am also going to try and work out just how I can achieve my writing goal. It’s not going to be easy. I look at other authors like Stephen King and what sacrifices he made in the beginning to his craft and maybe it is time for me to make some of those sacrifices (and not write until 4am in the morning as much as I would love to but a sleeping on the couch mummy is not going to be any good for Kaeden nor for the electronics and house if he has free reign lol)

If I can find my Go MAD thinking book or e-book I will try and format my goal that way but otherwise I’ll just use my common sense.
