A quick reminder to myself and all my writer friends...just TYPE!
Whatever we say, doesn't have to make sense. Just type. Whatever typos appear every damned page...just keep typing! There are so many times I get wrapped up in the simple things, I stall out and stare beyond my computer screen (which is actually good for writers to do every 20 minutes for 20 seconds to save their eyes).
I'm trying to get in the habit of chanting "just type" when I get in these ruts that can have me struggling to get a sentence down for days. I'm having one of those moments now, so no better time to practice what I'm preaching here.
Just type.
Just type.
Just...
Okay, I'm going to go type.
Best,
Gin
Oh, your post is so timely. I've been in serious self-edit mode all weekend. Definitely needed the reminder to just freakin' type new words already!
