WELCOME TO 2021! All of last week, I got a LOT of posts and people proclaiming quite loudly, "2020! HORRIBLE YEAR! So happy it's over! WHOO!" Gunna be honest, I disliked this a lot. I'm not saying 2020 was sunshine and rainbow unicorns (which it totally should've been, just saying). There were a LOT of bad things that happened (*cough cough* looking at you, pandemic *cough cough*) and yes it actually did destroy a year of my childhood BUT. A lot of good things came from 2020.
How will I ever make it to the end? This is a question you're not alone in asking.
Today I'll be sharing with you 4 things that I've learned to use to empower me in continuing to plot and write my book until I make it to the end.
Let's get started!

It's hard being a writer. You fall into slumps, Perfectionist Block, and even forget that you love to write! So today I'm boosting up your writer minds with 7 quotes that will make you want to write again! Let's get started!
With or without quarantine, it's always hard to find inspiration and motivation to write your book. But now, more than ever, us writers are all struggling to sit at our computers and write something good.
So today, I'm giving you 4 huge hacks to getting yourself motivated and inspired to write again.
Let's get started!
Hi friends! My name is Martina from the Planet of Positivity blog, and I just want to start off with a BIG thanks to Mary for letting me guest blog. Today I am going to share a quote that is really motivational and inspiring to me and I hope it's inspiring to you too.
I'm going to tell you something you've never realized before: Writer's Block does not exist.
I know, this sounds CRAZY! How to fix Writer's Block is everywhere: people make courses about it, people try to tell other people how to fix it in one little pin, people spend their writing hours moaning about how they can't write. Honestly, it's become one of the biggest writerly problems out there!
And I'm telling you today that it doesn't exist.
How can I write really well during my writing time and come out of it feeling like I actually accomplished something?
A totally solid question! I mean, it's hard to sit down in your busy life and make time for your writing, so we want to make the most of it, right? Sometimes it's just so disappointing after your writing time is up and you might feel like you could've done more, so today I'm going to be giving you some tips and tricks on making the most of your writing time, to get things done!
Let's get started!
My goal for this blog is to help other writers like me persevere with their goals and become better, stronger, more amazing writers than ever before! I want to inspire people to keep doing what they love by urging them on with writing techniques, humor, and motivational support.
But how can I do that if I don't really know where to start?
I've been blogging for almost a year now, and I've loved all of it. But last week I had no ideas for posts, and even when I got lots of ideas I still felt no motivation to write anything.
So...I'm going to ask you guys for some help, instead of me helping you this time.
The cruiser blinks.
Visible.
Invisible.
Visible.
Invisible.
Over and over again, just like your whirling thoughts.
*in italics* This first sentence must be perfect! It has to hook readers, draw them in, make them latch onto my story...I have to give it everything I got!!!
And yet the cruiser still blinks and your fingers curl in frustration as no inspiration comes.
Yes, I'm pretty sure it's safe to say us writers have fought battles no non-writer could ever even being to know about.
In fact, this past week I've been struggling with a type of battle myself; trying to figure out what to tackle with my book first.
In fact, I was fighting it so hard that I didn't do any writing my first entire week of summer.
Last week's post got me thinking. First we must start writing (reference to tip #1 of that post) but where do we start, and how?
That's what we're going to be finding out today!
