A sanctuary for weary writers, inky wretches, and aspiring professional novelists. |
Welcome to the Shelter, Stormy. Unfortunately, there's no simple answer to your question. A friend of mine, Dawn Colclasure collected a series of essays on this subject, most all of which were written by working parent/authors. [b]BURNING THE MIDNIGHT OIL: How We Survive as Writing Parents -- http://www.booklocker.com/books/1743.html[/b] I'm not hawking the book because Dawn is a friend. I think some of the essays reveal some really good strategies for wiriting while surviving the rigors of family and work. After a few others weigh in with feedback to your question, I'll add my own. (And I do have a little experience with the dilemma *grins* ) For more "stuff" visit: http://LiamJackson.com "Have you ever been caught hiding bodies in your closet? No? Good place to hide them, uh?" |
