How often do you write?

Writing is my favorite hobby. Whenever I get time I just start writing.

 

I dislike writing and for me it is akin to torture most of the time. There are moments when I enjoy it. I feel more compelled to do it than anything else. A guess there is that old quote, 'I like having written.' That reflects my attitude to writing, I suppose. Can't do it every day but would like to.

The desire to write - when it strikes - is more of a burden than anything else.

 

Every day or thereabouts. Sometimes I just don't write and I walk by my notebook thinking I should, and then I keep walking.

 

I write most days, edit and rewrite on others. I've found routine to be a much bigger asset to a writer than inspiration. A famous writer said something similar that I've quoted him saying on this forum before. I can't remember the writer or the exact quote, but after reading this I decided to give routine more of a try. It's one of the best things I think a writer can do.

 

5 days a week, 5k a day, never fail.

 

Not nearly as often as I should is the correct answer.

 

I try to write every day, even if it's just to get a few words down, but I've been having problems focusing with both reading and writing lately. It's very discouraging.

 

I'm an all or nothing kind of person. I while either fully submerse myself in writing and ignore everyone and everything for long periods of time, or I'll do sod all. I don't think it's healthy.

Do you have to earn post editing privileges?

 

You do if you're a brand new member (spammer deterrent) but he should be okay to edit now. No biggie.

 

It happens in spurts.

I can wake up and write the entire day and repeat this for weeks..... Then there are some days where i struggle to even write a sentence.

I think ive written a grand total of 2k this entire week on my WIP. -sighs-

 

Forgot I could edit it!
