Something to do.

    Hobbies come and go. Sometimes you find one that significantly fills that small gap in your personal space-time continuum that we call free time. When you find one you like enough to continue for years you should eventually get good at it. Well for years I have been doing this little hobby of mine but I don’t think it will ever shine. Oh well its something to do.

Amateur Writers Curse

    I am starting to think I a have a curse that prevents me from writing. I sit here for hours sometimes researching, reading and playing on the internet uninterrupted. Then when I am inspired to write someone wants to talk to me or other people in my general area want to talk to each other. I was reading peoples blogged novels at http://nanoblogmo.blogspot.com/ . There they try to write fifty thousand words in a month. I was reading one where the author complained about having no time to write at all. I know the feeling. I would never attempt fifty thousand words in a month but I would be happy if I ever achieved fifty thousand words in one document other than my personal journal. I know I can do it but there are so many excuses available to me. Its hard enough to read a novel with constant distractions let alone write one. I find the best time for me is when I can go to bed a couple of hours early and get up a couple of hours early. I know I could put together fifty thousand words in a year but I am afraid I would forget the plot.
