How often do you find yourself saying, "I don't have time to write"?
Maybe you don't do any significant writing unless you have a large chunk of time to devote to your WIP.
Sound familiar? Yeah, me too!
The suggestion I recently received was that I should write for 15 minutes 2 times per week. Then gradually work in either longer sessions or more days.
Most of us wouldn't just decide one day to run a 5K without doing some training and working up to it, right? It's much the same with writing. Start small.
In truth, if you consistently wrote 15 minutes every day, you'd eventually have something.
15 minutes per day (depending on how fast you write)
50 words * 365 days = 18,250
100 words * 365 days = 36,500
200 words * 365 days = 73,000
Now what happens if we write NO WORDS * 365 days = 0 words
So the big question is: would you rather get NOTHING done or get SOMETHING done?
