May 1 question - How do you deal with distractions when you are writing? Do they derail you?
When the house empties itself of people and pets, I race to my laptop and dive into my work. The sweet sound of nothing accompanies my writing sprints. And as far as distractions go, after raising two boys and currently living with a teenage girl, distractions abound. It's a part of life. If May is anything like April, it will speed by faster than a lightning strike. I'm anticipating a few distress calls with my upcoming schedule. Hang in there!
Whew, best of luck.
ReplyDeleteYou've adapted well. Kudos!
ReplyDeleteDistractions are indeed a part of life.
ReplyDeleteI can feel your energy, Jennifer! I'm sure you'll manage whatever comes your way! Time is definitely running faster and faster. Take care!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're able to use that quiet time well. I usually just collapsed onto the couch when everyone was finally off doing the daily routine. Thanks for posting today!
ReplyDeleteThat's great that you get some quiet time to write when everyone's out of the house. And focusing on your kids is important too. They grow up so quickly and start their own busy lives too soon. Enjoy the time you have with them living with you.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're able to use your quiet time wisely when you get it.
ReplyDeleteIt's nice that you do get the house to yourself on occasion. I'm sure that was harder when the kiddos were younger.
ReplyDeleteMay will be over before we know it :( But we can hope to utilise the time there is.
