Finding Time January 31, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — Reads2much @ 4:57 pm

I want to write, I love writing but never seem to have the time anymore. I have notebooks filled with pages of stories but the last one that got any serious action was in college. Now I simply collect lovely notebooks (given as gifts). In Malcolm Gladwell’s Outliers he says it takes about 10 thousand hours to become proficient at anything. The adds up to approximately 10 years if you work 3 hours a day at something. In total number of work hours writing I’d say I’m pretty close, but it’s been so long that I’m in much need of practice. My resolution is to write for 30 min everyday in Feb, even if I don’t have anything to say. So look out for posts for the next 28 days. I can’t promise they’ll be any good, but I figure maybe I should write something before I edit it to death
