BTW, I procrastinate ALL the time…and I’m the owner of this blog! As a writer, you have something awesome to contribute, even if you procrastinate from time-to-time. We all do it. And there’s no shame in it, either. That’s why we’re part of this community, right? So we can find ways to overcome our procrastination…but that doesn’t mean it won’t still happen.

So if you are interested in sharing the process you use and how there are more than two ways of doing things, I’d love to share it with the readers of this blog. Send it to: Jennifer@procrastinatingwriters.com if you decide you want to guest post. And if not, that’s fine too.

But I would also like to clarify further what I feel so strongly about. It isn’t how I write. I write however suits me, and it’s poetry that taught me so much about structure. I like the challenge of a good structure.

What concerns me is that so many people believe there are only two ways to write and perpetrate that myth upon others. It isn’t true. You don’t have to fit to a mold. I feel strongly about it because I got my first subscription to Writer’s Digest almost ten years ago, read it faithfully, and bitterly lamented it’s same perpetration of that same myth.

And yet, almost every working writer that explains their process admits to taking a road that is more in between these two extremes. So why is the myth perpetrated?

I’m not sure, but I try to do my part to fight it.
