Do you make writing more difficult than it needs to be?
When it's time to write, do you spend more time and energy thinking up reasons not to write than actually writing?
Do you lend a believing ear to that voice of negativity in the back of your mind that shouts lies like "You're not a writer," "You should quit trying," or "No one will want to read your writing anyways"?
When writing gets hard, do you let yourself get distracted by your social media feeds, Netflix, or that bag of chips in the pantry?
If you do, you've fallen prey to the drama that often gets created when it's time to write.
You have? Me too.
In its simplest form, writing is just putting words down on the page.
