Getting back on track

Wow, have I lost my writing flow within these last couple of months. Not good but at times it does happen. Seems I allowed this whole virus thing get to me more than I thought. I just feel like I'm not producing near of what I'm capable of.

It just so happens that I recently received a reminder about Story A Day In May coming up so this will be a great way to jump back in. I'll end up with thirty-one stories by the end of the month and that is great

You'll be able to follow along here as I post.

Till then, see ya soon

I'm off work right now and in between surgeries,s till I manged to get my story for the week done last week. I'm OK as long as I write in short periods throughout the day otherwise if I try and do too much I get sore. So easy does it wins the race. I'm

NEW STORY CHALLENGE

 Ray Bradbury said in one of his lectures that it is impossible to write 52 bad stories in a row and encouraged writers to write a story a week for a year. He is exactly right. I mean it's Ray Bradbury who wrote well over six hundred stories before he got his first acceptance. Yeah, not many people know about that. If you want some interresting reading google writer rejections and you will learn a thing or two. I'm going to do this challenge plus I'm going to publish the story at the end of the week. I indie publish everything I write for the most part. Though lately I've fallen short on the publishing thing. I've got stories written now that are just sitting in my back log. Does nobody any good that way. To add to that I'm writing two stories a week instead of that one. One story doesn't seem enough to me so I'm adding one. Plus I'd like ot have a hundred stories up by the end of the year and add in small collections. I have to get as many stories u
