I don'...Thanks for reading and commenting Alan. I don't know how regimented I'll be in real life - but I do feel we can create good habits! When I work on the same book every day it comes easier. Writers often blog about the pain of waiting to hear back from editors / publishers - and it is a pain - but my experience has told me we shouldn't be waiting but getting on with the next thing! Hope your writing is going well - with a more relaxed inner sergeant? ;)Emily Benethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05889594625649397804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4375637475795118873.post-8955569811359452352015-10-28T18:29:59.502+00:002015-10-28T18:29:59.502+00:00It's so infuriating, waiting for the bloody pu...It's so infuriating, waiting for the bloody public to notice what you've done and bloody buy it. Or download it. Or anything. But as you yourself pointed out, these things take time and build incrementally and cumulatively... and there comes a point where there's really nothing more we can do to spur it on. So I totally applaud your target of focusing on creating something new instead of fussing over what we can't affect. Trouble is, it sounds terribly regimental and I for one don't have a drill sergeant to keep me at it. Hope your inner sergeant major does the job.
