Alone Time

The machinery keeps me company while I'm at work on the weekends. I like the quiet, just wish it was in the comfort of my own home. I need more recharge time. Somehow being in the office with little but youtube to do, just don't cut it. So, I'm going to be taking it. And in some ways it's going to be forced on me. Between being broke and the upcoming lack of overtime, I'll be spending plenty of time at home. Doing my thing... maybe even some writing. Hopefully some writing.

I started a "program" of sorts recently. A book that is supposed to guide me into my own creative path. Not sure if it's going to work but it's adding new things to my life, hopefully a kickstart will be in there somewhere. I have lots and lots of ideas, just not sure how to get them started, exactly.

The first thing that's added is my three pages a day. Each morning I'm supposed to write three pages of whatever is going through my head. Done it the last two days, I think it'll take just a bit more time than that to feel a difference. Basically, I think the idea is to clean out the psyche first thing in the morning so the rest of the day doesn't feel so daunting. And from the way the book explains it, good ideas will begin to flow. If I want to make my writing work for me I have to get more serious about it. For instance, I have to sit down and do it. Really do it.

Which means alone time. Which is fine with me.
