Episode 35 - How Do I Find Time To Write?
In THE WRITERS’ ROOM - How Do I Find Time To Write?
Finding time to write feels impossible. There is always something else that seems more important. As they say, a writer’s house is never as clean as just before they sit down to write! But in all seriousness, how do we find time to write? That’s the question we’re tackling in the Writer’s Room on this episode of the podcast.
We all like the feeling of having written, but sometimes having to write doesn’t come easy! It’s hard - simply it takes discipline and habit and sometimes ‘life’ gets in the way. It is the same for everyone.
“Most successful authors began their writing career in the margins of their normal life.” Gist MacDonald.
