I Think I Have a Problem!

Almost five months passed since I posted anything, but this is not the issue here. In my last post, I shared how determined I was to keep my focus on the project I consider the most important. Of course I wasn't able to maintain that.

Not intentionally, but I was jumping between projects once again even adding two or three new ones to that ever growing list of book ideas, stubs and sprouts. So... it really looks like that I might have a problem.

Of course if we understand that writing is about getting better and staying that way then it simply doesn't matter one what is writing about and how consistent her writing is. However if you want to get anywhere with your projects, you cannot really do that, can you?

For now I just can't help it, my mind races between projects as ideas appear here and there and ideas became writing stints that are among the best (creative) experiences of my life. I love it and even though I have a history of struggling to see through things that have no deadlines, I want to get somewhere with my writing.

Maybe a backup plan would be to keep developing ideas and getting them simultaneously to a place from where I can finish them one by one, rolling out a book every year. That is very nice, yeah, but the problem is that more and better ideas would still appear during the process, pushing back the start of the "rolling out phase" farther and farther.

So, I think I need someone, who starts paying me and kicking my ass to start finishing books, one by one. Not gonna happen? Then I need to be the one, who pays myself...
