Make five minutes to today to write down the writing goals you have for the week. Perhaps you want to write 500 words a day, perhaps you want to edit a chapter, perhaps you want to read a novel you’ve been planning to get to.  All of these are good writing goals.  What are yours?

The last couple of weeks, I’ve taken a break from posting and focused on finishing off a book.  The windows of time I’ve had have all been spent writing.  Lovely.  What breaks do you take from your life to fit in time for writing?  When was the last time you told yourself you were going to write for an hour (or even fifteen minutes)?

Gift yourself a writing window.  Remind yourself it’s important to you.  And get writing.

The wonderful website placesforwriters.com has several new call outs for short stories, poems, speculative fiction and more.  Check them out.
