Yet another writer projects

[ksmith]

My advice? Stop projecting. If *you* feel blogging interferes with *your* production, ease off or stop. If it has no effect, or if you feel it helps you, keep it up. Because if you stop, I won't have anything to read.

I think posting about the wip, the 70 days thing, and process in general is helping me get going. I like seeing what my friends are up to. I live in a small town with no writers within shouting distance. LJ has been a godsend in that regard.

But I draw the line at reading blogs by writers who believe Hence Me, Therefore Thee.

For some people (not necessarily you - you know better than I, on that score!) blogging about the wip and giving daily (or at least, periodic) wordcounts seems to be a way of creating...witnesses?

That's exactly the reason why I signed up for 70 Days, then blogged repeatedly about it. This early in the game, the true deadline panic has yet to set in, so I need something else to get me going.

Sad, but true.
