Are you thinking:
This writing project is stupid. I’m not curing cancer or saving lives. It’s just stupid.
I met a dancer one time who said she danced for “The good of the movement.” That dancing by itself was important.
In other words we decide what is important. I believe that having an interest in something bigger than yourself is what makes life worth living. Completing a book fits that category.
It doesn’t matter what kind of book. The project is worth the exercise even if the content is only to entertain…which I also believe is a worthwhile goal.
Write for the good of the movement.
Got it? Good. Ass on chair. Fingers on keyboard. Type!
As always, Tom says it with out the fluff of purple prose…gotta love a guy who says what he means…and means what he says.
