So how’s 2014 been going for you so far, writing-wise?

Even if you’re not the type who makes New Year’s resolutions, you probably promised yourself this would be the year you were going to definitely…

-Write every day!
-Read more scripts!
-Connect with more writers!
-Have the script ready for the Nicholl days, even weeks before the deadline!
-Not surf the internets when you’re supposed to be writing! (tough, but not impossible)

Have you done any of this? If so, good for you! It doesn’t matter how much you accomplished; the important thing is you still did it.

Feels awesome, doesn’t it? Keep at it!

If not, why not?

Sure, it’s easier to procrastinate than to do the actual work, but if you want to call yourself a writer, then you kind of have to, you know, write. Even if it’s just a page a day.

So consider this the digital equivalent of a motivational, well-intentioned kick in the pants to get yourself going.

There’s still time to start the year right, so as soon as you’re done reading this (which should include hitting the ‘like’ button and leaving a comment of praise/gratitude), go and do any or all of those things listed above.

Like the saying goes, this thing ain’t gonna write itself.
