Writing ... when you don't feel like it.

I usually come away from our writers' club meetings inspired to write. I did after our meeting last Saturday. It just never lasts very long.

One of the writing tips that they always give for writers is -- write.
Write every day.
Write anything.
Brainstorm.
Free write.
Write a letter.
Just write.

I do have a few things written down for topics to write about. I just need to make the daily habit of writing.
And I probably need to get a little more creative about my writing, too. There is a short-story writing contest if any of you are interested. The deadline for submission is Feb. 29. I've committed to making an entry but have yet to begin. The rules for the contest can be found here. The entry deadline has been extended to the 29th so we still have 10 days!

Time to get busy!
Have a great weekend.
