I sat around for the majority of the day playing video games. All the while telling myself I should be writing. It’s a bit funny to think about the fact that as much as I love writing, half the time I feel so unmotivated to do it. That is until I actually sit down and start working on it. Then I can’t stop myself after that. A positive and a negative really. The positive being that I am writing, the negative being that I usually end up writing until two or three in the morning and have to be at work at six AM.
Something I have noticed, especially when working on a new project or when I start to go out of my outline for a novel is that it feels like I’m vomiting words. It’s the most interesting thing because it often physically drains me. The shear pull of words and story that can come spewing out can be overwhelming. It was just something I found interesting. I mostly find it interesting because I’ve noticed authors tend to have similar experiences so I’m sure that many can relate with this.
Now then, I have to return to my vomit. And to all my fellow authors I wish you a happy vomiting session.
