Today is the day. I am going to press publish.

Step 1. Write something, get something, anything down on a page. It doesn’t matter what it is. It just needs to be written down on a page. Nothing written equals nothing published.

Step 2. Don’t worry about being perfect. Don’t worry about being good for that matter, because looking back on this, it will be crap. Today the goal is to press publish. Next comes learning and improving my writing.

Step 3. Look over and edit, make some tweaks, but remember step 2. It’s not about being perfect or good. This is about pressing publish and getting past the fear of putting something out there.

Step 4. Get Ready… Set… Publish!
