Lately, I've had to cut back on my blog visits because what starts out as a quick check expands until it's eaten up all my writing time.Vicki Rochohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07381089434014961076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-507167840242313545.post-59457009146098782492010-11-15T16:36:07.730-05:002010-11-15T16:36:07.730-05:00I try and write something every day, even if I'...I try and write something every day, even if I'm just doing edits. So long as I'm writing/re-writing I'm happy. I hate it when I don't, I miss it.

I already have about 3.5 other jobs, and writing just CAN'T feel like a job to me or I won't do it. <br /><br />Instead, it's my release. And yes, I love doing it, so I make time for it. Usually from my sleeping time.Elana Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05877856005992028912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-507167840242313545.post-32513977125417934262010-11-15T11:49:02.499-05:002010-11-15T11:49:02.499-05:00:) Love the highlights from the longer version!

It's going to be a fun and busy week! <br /><br />P.S. That's a great ending quote. I seem to "lose" time all over the place, but it's just my lack of organization.
