Constantly Distracted Writer
Saturday night everybody was gone and the house was empty. Perfect chance for me to do some writing without any distractions right? Wrong. I got distraced by my phone and a book I was reading amd ended up doing nothing. I am constantly finding myself distracted while I am trying to write even though I have a writing space with a door. I either get an email and that makes me go online to look at something else or my husband will come in and ask me something (completely disregarding the do not disturb sign). I need to find a writing partner or someone that I can use as a way to stay accountable. I have tried to use my husband (he just says 'uh huh' and 'good'). I've tried to write down daily to do lists. So far nothing has helped. I just dont know what to do. I will continue to try and find a way to stay accountable although doing this could be considered getting distracted.

There is a program (I think it's a free download) that will block you from the internet for a predetermined amount of time, or will allow you to be on the internet for a set amount of time and then a "bomb" goes off.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure of the name of any of these. Can anybody out there help out?
Since you have a new blog, I would suggest you find writing blogs you like, become a follower, and leave comments on various blogs/posts that you like. That will bring you more followers and expand your internet presence.
The program might help once i get internent that is no on my phone. For now that is all i have to work with.
