Writing Green

I do try and write green! I try not to print out my writing unless I have to.  I try and use the computer when I write so as not to use too much paper.  I write in the morning because I know my solar panels are working to pay for the electric I am using.

Writers block

Writers block is one that is never far from my thoughts what if...
But when I put a pen in my hand and just start to write ideas start flowing not necessarily what I was thinking I was going to write. It is just a way to get the writing processes working again.

Health and writing

I wonder if my health has improved with writing? My fitness level I know hasn't as I spend too much time sitting down with pen and paper. But my mental fitness I think is better. I try not to let my emotions to get locked up in my brain, fighting to be heard or just wanting to escape. They have a way out through my paper and pen or my keyboard.

Warming up!

What do others do for warming up when it comes to writing? I know that I write my to do list for the session.  I then make notes on each item. This gets me focused and in the mood!

Writing time verses family life

I sometimes wonder how I will fit all that I need to do for me and my writing in amongst my family demands. I wonder at what point I should put my writing above those of my family, or do I write all morning and then spend the afternoon trying to get the home straight? Would it work better the other way round? Get the family things done first and then write? When I've tried it this way round the family demands take over and I don't get any writing time! Finding the balance sometimes seems too much and what normally suffers is my writing!
