I have to find a way to get myself excited about the story again, usually by taking a break from it and then going back to the beginning and reading through it. That usually helps! Good luck with your writing!Julie Daohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13814052162359300933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757067787158700689.post-14025094665895313512012-04-20T08:57:45.955-05:002012-04-20T08:57:45.955-05:00Whoa, these are awesome tips.

Your second point is where I get stuck...I like to ease into writing with checking email/facebook/etc and like you said, suddenly half an hour is gone. I love the "three things I want to accomplish today" tip, too.

Right now I'm so involved in a new book I writing that I've procrastinated sending chapters of my other book to my lovely critique partners! LOL. Will try to do that this week.<br /><br />And definitely cleaning toilets is a sure-fire way to make me procrastinate!<br /><br />Wanted to tell you that I recently finished Canyon Walls and I loved it! <br /><br />Cheers,<br />SueSusan Anne Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17258093329143787876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757067787158700689.post-81396921506196943762012-04-14T07:37:43.790-05:002012-04-14T07:37:43.790-05:00I don't think I'm much of a procrastinator...I don't think I'm much of a procrastinator, that's my husband's job.
