Writing whether it feels right or not
When I realized I had forgotten to post earlier today I almost decided to skip the task altogether. I know it's better to stick with a schedule. But I'm not a night person and it's 10:30pm here. Is it prudent for this writer to stick with the discipline of writing on a strict schedule, even when I know I'm off my game? I'm never sure about such things. My writing under such conditions may end up being disappointing to the reader, but there is value in knowing that I wrote because it was time to write. For tonight, I do have that. Are you developing your own writing discipline? If so, I hope it gives you a boost to keep going.
