After 20-odd years of procrastinating, laziness, writer's block and various other excuses, I have attempted to start writing some fiction.
Whether this will take the form of a short story or novel, I haven't decided yet.
It took me around five hours, on and off, to write around 500 words. Which, to someone who writes a 50-page report every week, and who used to fill a whole newspaper single-handedly in three days, seems terribly and painfully slow.
And now that the first 500 words has been committed to paper (or to .doc anyway), I'm pretty much convinced that most of it is utter shit.
I bet Enid Blyton never had it this hard.

heh, good luck! I've often thought of writing something but due to the fact I'm pretty much an illiterate moron, never have.
