Ask yourself: Am I writing daily? Am I focused? Am I enjoying the writing process? Do I believe what I am writing? Am I writing too little and editing too much? Do I write at a special time in a special place? Is my writing fiction or reality? Is it personal or for family, friends or general consumption?
