Delays All Over
So I'm sitting here at an odd hour waiting to do my job. My job happens to depend on when the olympics end each night. Tonight, they're going long. And they really are pretty exciting so it's not all bad. But this more than two hour work delay has me thinking. I could have been writing this whole time. But I didn't because I wasn't sure how long I would have. Now, two hours later, I realize that was a lame excuse to delay writing. I'm pretty sure it was Laurie Halse Anderson at the NE SCBWI conference that said just write. Even if it's just 15 minutes a day. WRITE. So, tonight, my "day" job was delayed. It was out of my control. But I control when I write, so no more delays. Plus, I miss my characters!
