If you are overwhelmed, it's okay to start small / Happenings In The Outhouse 08-Oct-2021

 Imagine being tasked with cleaning up a hoarder house.


Where would you begin?

Start small.  Start somewhere.  It doesn't matter where, but start.

Writing a novel is the same way.  It's a daunting task that most people won't even try.  But start writing.  It doesn't matter if those words are going to stay when it comes time for publication.  Just the act of writing it down, practicing your writing, is enough to get the creative juices flowing.

Starting a new book, or even a short story, can be difficult.  But slap some words onto the page.

Do you expect to look like the muscular men or women who grace the covers of magazines if you haven't stepped into a gym before?  Of course not.  But all great things have to start somewhere.

Don't be afraid.  Just do it.
