Sometimes that's the only thing you can do, especially when you've got small kids. Doing it a few times in the day means the words add up too. I can't write in front of the TV though - I need silence!Nick Wilfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03841776353790635132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18714294.post-56994690184693446772016-09-07T12:54:33.384-05:002016-09-07T12:54:33.384-05:00I'd rather fight for my right to party.

If the family sits down, I take a laptop and sit with them, but write away. There's no other way to get things done!Crystal Collierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03912469552483168148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18714294.post-87943026353641454322016-09-07T08:59:04.907-05:002016-09-07T08:59:04.907-05:00I guess you're lucky to be mobile--computer wi...I guess you're lucky to be mobile--computer wise. Unfortunately for me I've got the big honking desktop (my laptop died recently). When I before semi-retirement I wrote during my lunch break. Now I write first thing in the morning.

This is why I planned my 'retirement' from publishing for the same time.<br /><br />Looking back, it was the right decision. I can design graphics all day long amid distraction, but I need absolute quiet to write--and husbands are anything but quiet.
