Episode Details

It comes up in nearly every conversation with a writer, whether in a group or one-to-one: “I don’t have time to write.”

Their deep longing to compose thoughtful, focused prose runs up against scrunched schedules that squeeze out creative effort. It seems they have nothing more than cracks or crevices of time to sit at the computer and can’t focus long enough to write what they want to say.

Worse, they give up, and the project remains unwritten, living only in their head.

Don’t let it be you.

This is the first in a series of episodes where we'll look at ways to deal with the struggle of finding time to write.

To support you on your goal of finding time to write, consider joining WriteTrackers. We write together twice a week for an hour and a half. Some people can only come to one or the other or only a couple of times a month and they still report that they are completing projects they never would have gotten to if they hadn’t joined WriteTrackers. I love hosting this because I write alongside everyone and get things done, too. Learn more at writetrackers.com.
