Ok, so as of today it’s obvious that I haven’t been blogging everyday, but I have been writing often. I’m taking an English class this semester and we have definitely been writing. I can honestly say I’m learning something and it feels good. I’m glad to be learning but, more importantly, I’m glad that I’m learning something that will be useful to me education-wise and for my own personal writing. I get excited thinking about the moment I get back to my personal writing until I’m anxious and can’t really focus on what the instructor is saying because, of course, my own story is unfolding in my head and it seems like all I need is to get to my pen and paper (I like to write longhand then type it up) and those words will flow steadily across the paper just the way I want them to. And then reality sets in. I get to the page and I can’t think of all that information that was swimming in my head at the wrong time that seemed so perfect, but I don’t allow myself to get discouraged, I keep writing anyway until I have something on that paper allowing me to progress toward my goal of a finished novel. So now that I’ve told you what I do to move forward toward my goals, tell me do you have any goals? What are you doing to achieve those goals?
Why I’m Here
I love all things that involve reading and writing. I aspire to be the best I can be in all things, especially as a writer of contemporary romance. I’ve been writing for eight years now with the intent to become published. Although I would be lying if I said that I wrote consistently, I am very serious about writing because that’s where my heart is. For this reason I’ve always been hesitant to put myself out there for the world to be criticized, but I’ve made up my mind to over come my fears because fear is an obstacle on the path to where we want to be. So, I’ve decided to do everything to encourage and motivate myself starting with this blog. I will try to blog every day or at least every other day. I’m very opinionated (I like to believe in a good way). Therefore, what you’ll find here is my thoughts on everything from writing to children to what love means to me. With that said, my name is Renita Williams and welcome to my blog.
