Hello from another newbie! This looks like a great place to be and I'm looking forward to finding my way around. I've been writing things since I was about 8...mainly poetry then, but some stories more recently too. This year is the year I'm determined to make a serious go of it! My writing is a bit sort of 'stop and start' at the minute, so I'm determined to get disciplined enough to write every single day! I recently started an online writing course so hopefully, having to work with other course students will give me the push I need. Look forward to chatting, Hidden Willow

Welcome!! Good to see another new writer. Hopefully we can keep you motivated-and on your toes. cheers
Hi there Feel free to try out in the weekly poetry and (tentative) writing contests. It may help with the discipline. Cheers.
Hey there! Welcome to the forums Always good to see another good face. If you don't mind me asking, where have you signed up to do the writing course? I'm looking for a good one at the moment... Kit
You sound a lot like myself. I need to discipline myself into writing everyday. I love writing don't get me wrong and as soon as I start I go overboard and end up with a lot more than I expected to begin with. As soon as I start I also get lost in the moment I don't always think it out but heavens just the word write makes me feel welcome. It's such a familiar word. But the problem is making time to sit down and write. Anyway I hope your disciplining turns out well (and better than my own ) and you get the best out of this site.
Welcome to the Writer's Forum, hiddenwillow. I tghink (and hope!) that writing in a group setting will help develop the discipline to hone your writing. That, plus the opportunity to receive feedback from others serious about writing and improving, is why I am here also.
