I have wrote a handful of short stories. I still have a couple of short stories in my head that I could write. But the story that is calling to me the most right now is definitely a novel. To give you a brief biography of my life. I am a full time college student, I work twenty plus hours a week too, and I have a wife and three kids (the youngest six weeks old). So needless to say I don't have a lot of time to write either, but that is not my real problem. My longest story is 35,000 words and it took me three months to write. In comparison, it feels that I have walked over a few small hills only to find myself at the foot of Mt. Fuji. Because of this I have not written the first word of this story, everytime I sit down to do it I think of some reason to put it off or I just allow myself to load up a game on my computer rather than Microsoft Word. How do I work up the courage to begin this long journey?
