Good morning, everyone! I have a load of wash going, two cups of coffee in me, and I can do anything! Well, at least what I have to do today.
Caleb, what I do with any writing "task" which needs doing when the allure to writing new stuff is calling is use a kitchen timer. If I revise for 30 minutes--really doing the work, not putzing around--then I can write or outline or whatever for the same amount of time. But the I-don't-wanna task has to be done first.
In reasonably small increments of time, this works for me. I also find that once I immerse myself in edits and revisions, it's nowhere as bad as it seemed when I wasn't doing it.
Blond, I don't think I've done that many social gatherings of any kind in that time-span. I'd hate having to be "on" so often, but I suppose that's all a part of good marketing. I'm hiring Remington Steele when it comes time.
