I’m completely with you. Time is such a wonderful luxury. I try to enjoy what I get and use it wisely :) Most of the time anyway!

Thanks Anna and Jeannine.

Right now, I’ll be working 10-12 hour days until our software release on April 1.

Morning writing will help me in little steps. But any words I get on the page will be progress.

Great reminder Karen. Work when you can and don’t beat yourself up when you can’t.

Karen, I completely understand the pressure to want to race your way through a manuscript. I have to fight it quite a bit. But it sounds like your approach is the smart and realistic way to go. It might take you longer, but the book will be better for it. Good luck!

Thanks Caroline and Laura.

Acceptance of my slow pace is the first step. I need to put my blinders on and not compare myself to others who seem to crank out their stuff so fast!
