Rule number one when you want to be a writer is write every day, no matter what. I'm editing every day, sometimes rewriting, but I wonder if it counts. I have a story inside, several actually. I need to let them come out. But when procrastination is easier than writing, fresh writing doesn't happen. Every day, I do something. Most days, I read my last manuscript with my husband. I want to get it done, get it edited and submitted for publication. So yes, it needs to be priority one. But it can't be my only priority, writing-wise. I juggle so many things, like everyone does: family, work, life. But if writing is truly important to me, just like with anything, I need to show it. I think I'll go do some writing now.
