Self Motivation

I usually start the new year by taking a memoir writing class at the local community college. Because the tuition has nearly doubled, I skipped enrolling this year. Instead I will proceed with my writing as if I am enrolled, cranking out my words and reorganizing Dubious Grief. I dug out my class notes from the previous four years and will do the exercises, pump out the word count, and see where it leads. Since the class meets on Tuesday evening, I have dedicated my Tuesday writing to my memoir, Dubious Grief, to strengthen the illusion and hold myself accountable. Another year, another challenge.
