With a full-time job, a family and other commitments, I confess I did let my writing slide for many years.Paula Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10040623635956769807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999125118927001112.post-90597183201487762172012-03-01T10:37:58.115-08:002012-03-01T10:37:58.115-08:00Jennifer...that's a good idea...even just five...Jennifer...that's a good idea...even just five minutes a day would keep me in the mode and keep my muse flowing.<br /><br />Ana...Thanks for the kind words.

You have described my life t...I wish I did, Debra. <br />You have described my life to a T. Much mandatory to do, not enough energy to do everything. <br />Deadlines help. So does rest and relaxation.<br />You are a success. You have stories to tell, a publisher who likes them, and readers who buy them. <br />Things go in cycles. No phase lasts forever. You'll get your mojo back.Ana Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12325215832587691886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999125118927001112.post-77713673314308128712012-03-01T06:50:25.912-08:002012-03-01T06:50:25.912-08:00I have a ton of things on my plate, and that doesn...I have a ton of things on my plate, and that doesn't include unexpected emergencies (like broken bones). My writing also takes a back seat, but I find that if I plan a particular time each day that is my writing time, I tend to get to it more reliably. Sometimes it's for a very short time (like only 5 minutes), but at least I can edit a couple of lines, or get a line written and feel like I'm productive enough to get the wheels moving. Each day that I do it makes it easier to get myself to do it the next day. Good luck!Jennifer Wilckhttp://www.jenniferwilck.comnoreply@blogger.com
