Question:

How do I get motivated to start writing????

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

Write a very little each day, say 200 words, 500 if possible. It doesn't take long and even if what you write is rubbish at first, by the time you've done that for a couple of weeks you will have quite a bit written. You will find that by forcing yourself to do a little each day, soon you will get into your story and will actually really want to write more.

Also, think of the reaction from family and friends when you tell them you have finished a book and are going to try to get it published. Even better, the moment when you receive your letter from a publishing company saying 'yes'. Then remind yourself you need to actually write something to make that dream come true...and do it.

It's a matter of ambition, will, hard work and momentum. The rewards are well worth it :)

Luck!
