Thanks for the podcast, Joanna, great information. Though I didn’t write while I listened — as Chase confessed — I did multitask, so thanks for the audio. Your list of related articles looks interesting as well. I’ll be sure to check into those … later!

That’s so right Chase. We all struggle with this – there are always things to do other than write. For me, it’s writing that is not my novel – the next blog post, rewriting my ebooks etc …but we all have to break through that!

Great tips. The crazy thing was that while listening to this, I got ready for my morning. I brushed my teeth and started writing as I listened. Normally I only listen to music while I write but I found that I still managed to bang out two paragraphs.

I like what was mentioned here about time just being an excuse. You can always make time for things that are important to you. That might mean trimming down on social networking, reading less blogs in the morning, or watching less TV. But the time is there to write, you just need to make it work for you.
