Writing Like My Hair's on Fire

At least that's what I want to do. I am pretty jazzed about the upcoming Script Frenzy challenge that is going on, starting April 1st. There is a lot of cool stuff to do. It just so happens to be at a time when my life is so busy there doesn't seem time to do anything but to float along in survival mode. I hate survival mode.
I really don't have time for it - but at this point, I feel like if I don't take time to write, it is going to go by the way side, and I never will do it. As a result of never living toward my own hopes and dreams, I will succumb to a slow and painful death, dying a sad and crazy woman, mumbling "I'm a writer" "I'm a writer" through lips parched and swollen as those who come to wipe my butt in the nursing home look at one another and laugh knowingly that since I can now no longer get my fork to my own mouth without injury, I will likely never write anything worth reading.
Yep, not a pretty picture. Please support me in this Script Frenzy. It may be just the motivation that I need. You can even go here and get a little supporter's icon for your blog. Maybe you want to join too - super! It is not a competition. Let me know if you do so I can cheer you on!
Some ways you can support me are:
  • ask me how it is going
  • send chocolate
  • ask me what my word count is
  • send chocolate
  • let me bounce story ideas off of you
  • send chocolate
  • read my blog regularly and tell me what a dazzling and brilliant writer I am
  • send chocolate
Oh darn, pretty much just send chocolate!

  1. I already passed on to you the best advice - the butt in the chair method :)
    You can do it!

  2. What is your word count, you brilliant writer? I ate all the chocolate around here, so I have none to send. If I bought you some to send, I would probably eat that before it got in the mail!

  3. So... you need chocolate or what?
    You are the writer, you can do it.

    I'm not getting involved, I'm not a writer, but I'll cheer you on.

  4. To hell with survival mode!!
    To hell with unrealized dreams!!
    But mostly, to hell with having your butt wiped in a nursing home! (And I thought you couldn't handle MY tampon analogy! - Miss Visual! :) )

    Sounds like it's time to get into your writer's mode!

    You can do this girl!! One of the first things I noticed from your blog, was your talent for writing.

    May the muse be with you!!

  5. How's the writing going? I, like Halfmoon girl, would probably eat all the chocolate before I send it, but I do recommend Dove's dark chocolate. You can buy them in a big bag.

    What are you writing about? Are you writing fiction or nonfiction?
