Very near completion...

Less than 3K words and I am done with the very first one. Yeah!

It was hard. I thought it would only take me close to two weeks to get it completed but I was wrong. It was hard to give birth to words if you are in a situation. You really need to be away from it all. You need to know how to separate your reality from the world you are trying to create and temporarily live in.

Good thing I have someone to push me to move forward and complete my very first. If it wasn't for my sister Meng, I would have set it aside like I always do and just let my dream of being one pass.

I can already taste the fulfillment of completing 24K words!

Very soon...

But then after that, it will be on to editing. Haha!

The Place

I need to find the place where I can complete all my ongoing projects. I have a lot of works-in-progress right now but since I can't really find the motivation to finish at least one, I have to find a way to force myself to do so. I know I am uninspired with my current location: noisy surroundings, messy corner, cluttered desk. I need a new venue where I can feel inspiration coursing through my veins.

How about a hotel room somewhere in the city then?

I just wish I have the money to stay even for a whole weekend.

Whew!

Ang dami pa! So hard to catch up talaga. No way will I do this again.

Not complaining, though.

:P

Drawing inspiration from others...

Whenever I find myself lacking inspiration for what I do, I browse similar sites to draw inspiration from others. And it has been an effective way for me to become inspired once again.

Like right now I am totally inspired by this blog I saw. I won't name it anymore but suffice it to say that she has content that interests me. No, I am NOT a plagiarist or a spammer or a copycat! I work hard for all the blogs that I have and I intend to continue doing so. I just need to see something that will call to my creative side. I need to see the work of others so I know what I will improve on mine.

Thank you, inspiring blog! I truly need the motivation to work harder.

Something needs to change ASAP!

Themes. Templates. Layout.
Topics. Niche?
Schedule of posting.
Way of writing. Already have an idea how.
Ratio of paid versus non-paid posts.

I got an offer from a DA. Just a copy-paste opportunity. No sweat! It would have been easy money for me but then the DA changed his mind. Do you know why? My blog has links in almost every post, according to the guy. Ugh!

To say I was disappointed was an understatement. Of course, I was already expecting that money to come in. I already have a very good plan for that money but then it was not meant to be.

I have now decided that something needs to be changed as soon as possible or I will lose opportunities like that again.

Any concrete ideas to help me out?
