How I fight back is to post first thing in the morning, before breakfast. It's a joyful way to start the day, even though it's very early. Some days I don't get back to the computer until evening but that's okay. Always love catching up and reading other posts. Thanks for all your insight.

Either way, it's good to read your content again.<br /><br />Time sucks??? Hmmm. where to I begin? Well, they're mostly writing-related, anyway. Prepping queries, a synopsis, researching agents, and the good news, prepping for the release of my book something this year. None of that, however, is starting a new WIP.

I write an hour or so most nights and a few hours on Saturdays. I want to cry when I think of all the hours I could be writing, but I have to work. So, what gets in my way? Earning a paycheck. I'm grateful to have a job; I'd just like to work fewer hours for more money. ahahhaahahaaa!!!

I told myself that today I would start using a timer to allot time for the different things I have to do. Then I promptly knocked the timer off my desk - behind it and to get to it, I'll have to try to move my weighted down desk.
