To write or not to write?

Write everyday.

It's the basic rule to be a writer. We are suppose to write everyday. Ignore life, just write. Ignore writers block, just write. Ignore the dog barking at you, just write. Ignore that job, just write. Ignore your family, just write. Who needs a shower? Just write.

I love to write more than anything else in the world, but I fear I am not cut out for it. It's hard for me to shut out the world and develop my craft. It's hard to ignore the things screaming out for attention. More than that, it's hard to find words at times. I have so many ideas in my head but to get them on paper is somewhat of a challenge. I find myself writing characters, novels and poems in the shower or driving to class instead of at night at my desk.

To be a writer, I must write everyday.

My New Years resolution is to do just that, write every day. Write a blog post. Write a journal entry. Write a poem. Write a story. Write a book. It doesn't matter. I just want to write for the write of my life. Just write.
