All very encouraging. I find that some weeks I just want to visit with friends and have learned to not feel guilty that I don't write every day. Though it is funny how much I do write - for instance replying on here, a bit of morning pages type writing which is more long hand lists and a written ponder of why I want to do this not that. That sort of thing.

I did used to think that unless it was typed up it wasn't "real" writing.

Funny the silly things we have in our heads!

Yeah - I have to keep reminding myself of three things.

1. I do most of my writing in my head. It's not just sitting at a screen.

2. Most of what I write isn't fiction. It all counts.

3. It's only a hobby. I don't have to do it if I don't want to.
