I wish I could be greedy and hog up all my time this week with writing, but, alas, I can't. My children need my attention and, honestly, I'm grateful to be able to give it to them. A very wise author friend sent me a loving email reminding me to enjoy my kids, right now, in the present. Good advice, dear friend, thank you. Publication will come for me some day and I have a lifetime of writing ahead of me. My children, well, they're only young for a moment. I want to be there for them.
My solution: I'm squeezing in some good writing by waking up at five and having pure quiet time until about nine when J and A wander down for their breakfasts. Then we start our day together. Four hours of writing time everyday isn't too bad.
