What is your passion? You think about it a lot!?

Question

C'mon, fess up. What is it? Mine, is writing my book - why can't I seem to get started??????

TY for all the encouragement - I know what I want to write about, I even have the title, it's a matter of going back thru a difficult time....but I think I'm ready!!! and no, I won't be writing about midgets having sex -

Answer 1

Just start writing. Doesn't matter if its good, bad, or horrible. That's what EDITING is for. JUST START. Write ANYTHING. 99% of writing is editing, editing, and more editing. JUST START WRITING.

Answer 2

My passion is making movies. I'm a tax consultant by day, a little league football coach in my spare time, and between them both I write and film cheap low-budget movies. None of which have made it past my buddy doing me a favor at the film store. But one day, I'll have a big marquis with my film up there.
The best thing to do for and with your passion is to work on it. It doesn't take much - just do it. If you want to write a book, start with things you'd like to see in it. You will only come up with 3-4 things, then add to those. Next thing you know you've got the 3-4 major situations you want to cover in your writing. Then just fill in the gaps with things that lead to those situations, and things that result from decisions made in those situations. Then you fill in the rest and you have a story, novel, book or manuscript that you can be proud of. Mainly cause it's what you would like to read, and from that - you'd be amazed with this - others will want to read what you have written.
Good luck, take a step forward and you'll never look back.

Answer 3

Me too girl, writing a book is my dream come true. I can see myself a big time author traveling the world writing intriguing murder and suspense. Ohhh my eyes have stars in them! lol But you know I can never get started myself because I feel that I'm afraid of failing at it anyway. I'm scared to take the jump! Maybe you feel the same way or maybe you don't, but what do we have to lose by writing that first page? If it sucks, at least we will have done it, and then we can have a good laugh about it!

Answer 4

Well if you are thinking about it all the time then it is. Why haven't you started? its because you are always thinking about it. As long as you don't sit down an start writing you will never start. And once you start just go with the flow. A lot of writers face the same issue! (And mail me a copy when you get published *GRIN*)
