here it goes guys.... after two months of slacking and writers block... ive decided to conquer my issues and start work on my portfolio again.
I think i finally found the problem... I didnt think i had any of those weird writers behavior things but it was all a lie.... after living with maria for a semester I became accustomed to wearing and hat and socks everytime I worked on anything writing related... so now my new way to over come my summer of slacking is to revert back to my first semester habits and ignore the fact that i look like an idiot sitting in my room with shorts and a t shirt on along with a pair of knee high socks and a pink red sox hat. Ive also decided that when im trying to write all possible distractions (except for music) need to go that means watch, clock, phone, bracelets anything that will pull my attention away from this freakin book thing Im trying to write....
Yea I said book. I know it sounds crazy but thats what my prof. said to do for my final portfolio... or atleast as an addition to my portfolio... i doubt any professor wants to spend a day reading some novel written by a college student who spends her days cooped up in a dorm room working on homework or some piece of writing.
I was also thinking of getting a job as a night attendant because well... that gives me from like 8 at night to 1 in the morning to write/do homework... granted the job sucks ass and I would prob never end up doing it... but seriously i need to kick it in to gear here. Some people spend their whole lives writing a book and if i want any chance of a writers grant right out of college Im going to have to speed up and get a book done by graduation... that gives me about four years... three if im lucky.
thats about it.... but look I think my eccentric writers habits are helping already bc that was a good sized post for some one who has had writers block for the past 2 months....
Ok Ok im really going to go write now... wish me luck...
