Time.

Do you ever have days when really important things happen that demand your full attention…and that have nothing to do with work?

Yeah. That’s my day.

Having said that, I have cleared out the morning, and I’m ready to get down and dirty with the book.

Time management is always an issue in any job — but I find that writers have to fight especially hard to keep track of the minutes and hours, especially those of us who work at home full-time. Distractions are easy to come by. Emails bing. Cats meow. Poodles want to kick you off the couch. Maybe you need another snack to help you think.

Sometimes you’ve got to turn it all off. Go hide out. Close the door on the pets, lock yourself away from the internet. Easier said than done. And not even practical for some.

Everyone has a different process. At the end of the day, though, you need to get the work done.

So, off I go!
