Let's Get It Started--Day 1

Today is the day. No more procrastinating. No more excuses. I start my novel today.

There is a song by The Black Eyed Peas called 'Let's Get It Started' and these words always caught my interest:
To lose this inhibition
Follow your intuition
Free your inner soul
And break away from tradition

That's what writing is all about. Freeing yourself and letting go. Believe me-- it's not an easy task but it is doable. Trust in yourself and have faith. Turn off that whining inner critic and just write. Let the words flow from your heart to your fingers. First drafts are for fixing. Blank pages can't be fixed.
