I remember how

The way you find the time, and the way you start writing, for me, anyway, is to stop reading. I got through the first draft of the novel by not allowing myself to read anything for months.  Since I read six or seven books a week, it freed up a number of hours.  Plus, every time I got the urge to read, I wrote instead.  That’s how I do it.  I remember now.

Time - I need time!

I need time - and I have none… there are no minutes left in my day to set aside for writing, and I’m desperate to find some.  I keep peeling the inessentials out of my life, but as the week wears on, and I’m running on 5-6 hours of sleep every night, it just makes it that much worse.  My brain seems to cut out on me… and I have little enough to begin with.
