So I have taken my laptop outdoors to get myself some fresh air for a change. While I am here, I am going to give some writing a go. I have not written in a long time because I have been through the period most writers will be familiar with, and that is the whole self-doubt situation we believe nothing is possible.

It is definitely time to try pulling myself out of this rut, so I have signed myself up to camp NaNoWriMo for July. I probably won’t do 50,000 words that is the acceptable goal, but I am going to set a much lower target 20,000 words so that I can do a little piece of work every day which will hopefully get me back in the swing of things.

This is more like a journal than the intended piece of free writing, but that’s what happens when you sit down without a plan in mind!

Mind you, at least I am doing something 🙂 for camp I will probably be working on my work in progress just to keep that going, but I am sure there will be the odd short story that comes to mind during the time staring at the blank page of the screen.

Wish me luck!
