Operation Declutter
It was time for some serious action. My writing room was a mess! So much clutter it made me dizzy... I've been sorting, recycling, removing, shifting and labeling for the past few days and it's looking a lot better. I really think my brain functions slower when I'm surrounded by so much clutter! And I'm tired of looking for things from manuscripts to a certain writing book to my notes to my computer... okay, it's not quite THAT messy! Just a few more piles of papers to go through and then I can actually breath in here and find things in a timely manner. Doesn't seem like too lofty a goal, does it? I have a mega pack-rat gene so this hasn't been easy. My favorite phrase is "But I might need that someday!"
Now that my work space is organized it's time to Velcro my butt in my chair and get busy on my chapter book. I've been away from it for too long. Summer is a tough time for me to stick to a writing schedule but a few new pages here and there should be SO doable! And at least now, I'll be able to find those few pages...
