Progress Report

The times are tough and things have been getting worse by the day for me. I finally settled on a book idea for a novel and work out the outline, the characters profiles and a perfect interview. I need a cop or preferably a detective who worked in downtown Los Angeles in the early and mid 80s for my research. However, it seems to have fallen through and I very disappointed about it.

I was really hoping this would finally get me going on a book and I have vowed or resolved to complete one by the end of this year. I need to hustle if I’m going to make it, because I’m tired of wasting time and I have to focus. I am going to reassess my writing goals and priorities again and maybe redo them. I want to be published in something by the end of this year.

I read and read and then I read some more, and I’m thinking that it’s keeping me from not writing enough. I’ve been neglecting this blog, while I’ve been working on other things and not all of them include writing. I usually focus on one thing at a time, but I need to learn to multitask. Unfortunately I end up feeling overwhelmed with too many things. I’m just not that strong a writer right now to do so much. I wish I was and I’ve decided to push myself to do more, because a lot of my future depends on whether I can make this work or not.
