Just Keep Writing

The introduction to today's writing instruction made me laugh out loud:

"Is there anything that makes you feel paralyzed or blocked, like you can do nothing but procrastinate when you think about it? 

Uhhhhhhhh...

Yah...

Writing!

Ha. Here is another excerpt from the lesson. "I will take a moment to acknowledge them and then decide to go on anyway, with hope that things might just turn out better than I expect. Today, write about possible ways that you can get around them, get by them, go through them." 

Pick up your pen and write. That's how you get through it.

That's what I tell students. We even chant three rules:

  1. Pick up your pen or pencil and write.
  2. It can be crappy.
  3. Just keep writing.
I've never been a lead by example kind of gal. 
Come on, Piper.
Just keep writing.
