Day 48: Persistence is what is required.

"Novelist Harlan Ellison once said that if anybody can stop you from being a writer, then don’t be one."

Good say. In fact, these days I was thinking about (just a little bit though...) giving up. I'm too busy: my dissertation just seems so damn difficult to write more--I just have to put a lot more things that I don't think is so necessary. I have to look for a job this fall and if I don't have data that probably is not good for job hunting. Time seems to be running out.

And I guess nobody is reading my story...

But I have to be persistent, I guess. I have to finish this thing from beginning to end. As I said, I probably can't finish this one in 100 days. But I can have another 100 days. The important thing is I have to write everyday.
