In the search of focus . . .

I'm sitting here, listening to music (which is now muted because Pandora can't seem to find something I actually want to listen to), watching History Channel that is a show on comedy, reading the Authoress's new e-book "Agent Demystified" and am trying to write my current novel right now.

What I need . . . is focus.

It doesn't help that when I sit down and try to write that I'm so out of practice over the last several months that I end up writing a few sentences and then moving onto something completely different. Or I get up and walk away. I just can't seem to keep myself focused.

That being said, I've written several pages today. Which is several more than I have in the past month. Perhaps two. Is that a bad thing? Maybe. But I'm trying to keep myself down and working.

Now to turn off Pandora, close this, Agent Demystified, let Greg Behrendt finish his comedy special, turn off the TV, and grab my mp3 player so I can actually keep focused.

Maybe by the end of today I can actually hit two hundred pages. Only . . . twenty-two pages to go.

Update: Focus did not come.
