A Big Project to Plan

Today's action item is probably not one most people want to undertake and I'm not sure I even will fully. But I've gotten an idea for a book I want to write. The trouble is, I have to carve out time and space to write it. I already missed NaNoWriMo (though, my idea is not fiction so that's alright), but I haven't
missed the start of a new year. I have a shiny new planner for the year and I think I've just figured out how I want to use it. I'll block out time just for writing, which is something I haven't done in a long, long time. I wonder if I still even have the muscles for writing, or the grammatical prowess to back up the ideas.

The plan is going to be 3 hours of writing per week to start, and I'll spread it out based on my schedule, which of course is getting busier soon with a new D&D game, and hopefully an occasional online board game night with some friends. These "action items" I've been trying to write in the blog won't go on past the inauguration, since by that point I'll need to be doing instead of thinking about doing. But the book itself is separate from this. 

As usual, I've run out of writing time, so, again, today's action item is for me to carve out time to write, specifically, on this book idea. Cultivating my garden still, but a bigger project and focus in mind. Maybe writing about it last week got me motivated, who knows? Anyway, be kind to your neighbors.
