On Writing Every Day
Since the junior high school started back up on 24 August, I decided to put my down time at work to good use. Due to the fact that my husband has to be at work sooner than me, I have 30 minutes in the morning and about 20 minutes at lunch to get some writing done.
I figured that, since I have a bunch of stuff in my head I need to write down, as well as a lot of shorter stories I’d like to tell, I’d use this time to keep up on my writing and get things written that I’ve been putting off.
The only bad part is that I have no computer access at work so, from 650am until 5pm, I am out of touch with just about everything going on in the world. It also means that I’m tired as hell when I get home and certainly don’t want to do any writing.
If I don’t take advantage of my two times to write per day, I’m afraid it would be Christmas before I got to writing anything. I think it’s important to keep on writing so that you can stay sharp, but also so that you can get your rough drafts finished and work on polishing them when you have more extended times.
