I believe in you and continue to support your efforts. I also think that you are doing more than you are tracking in this program. Just sayin.

You may want to revisit the strategy of placing time on your calendar to write/read and to log your time weekly if you want to continue with stickK.

I was somewhat more successful this past week. I wrote for 30 minutes on Monday, 10/16; Tuesday, 10/17; and Wednesday, 10/18. I also completed and submitted and IRB proposal. Finally, I worked my way through a book on inquiry-based learning that will inform the teaching/research I am currently working on.

I have had difficult the past two weeks getting any writing in. I am trying a new approach, which is actually putting it in my calendar each day so that I can better plan.

I am clearly not being successful at this. But I did make an attempt yesterday and today. I read for an hour yesterday (July 26), and I wrote today, though only for 20 minutes. One thing I know about myself is that I do not have much writing stamina. I am a slow writer, and I plug away at it a day here and a day there. Thirty minutes of writing a day seems so daunting to me. I used to think of it in terms of production. Get one good page a day--or maybe one good paragraph. On the other hand, when I am in the heat of revisions, I can sit for hours and work without a problem. I keep thinking that I need to change that, but instead, I think I just need to go with it.

So...I'm going to change the 30 minutes of writing to 20 minutes. It feels less intimidating, and I know that if I can get into the habit of writing consistently, even if only for short amounts of time, I will build up my stamina for more writing.
