Last Friday someone on the WorkforWriters listserve posted a whole bunch of market leads and links to submission guidelines. I got excited thinking about story angles that I could work on for many of them. I was really motivated…though the 16oz cup of coffee could’ve had something to do with it, too. I planned some of them out over the weekend, and now midweek, I’m wondering where the time has gone.

I don’t dare say “I can’t findthe time to write” because that couldn’t be farther from the truth. I’ve got heaps of downtime here in Eugene. You could say that I’m making up for the last five years of crazy double job city life.

No, what I’d rather say is “I need to makethe time to write.” Some might not see much of a difference, but there is. A canyon of difference.

Stay positive, keep excited by projects that inspire and challenge you, and believe in yourself.

Time-wise, mornings work best for me. That’s when I feel the most focused and have good energy. When’s the best time for you?
