But with 13 completed novels to your name I really think you can stop feeling guilty. Give yourself a break :-) <br />Victoria--Victoria M.

There just don't seem to be enough hours in the day. Glad I'm not alone! I'd suggest a support group, but that would take even more time away!Gina Arditohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16066100570160886920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5079931541460049406.post-31089379785892735252015-08-23T05:00:36.212-07:002015-08-23T05:00:36.212-07:00Boy, Susan, you really hit home with this one.

In fact, I sometimes think it's worse because my day doesn't have structure unless I give it one. I think this is an issue all writers, especially women writers, struggle with. But for today, I'm not going to treat my writing like a hobby. I'm going to give it priority - after I get home from church and have a nice lunch with my husband.

The day job pays the bills and hopefully when I retire I can write more. Today I promise to actually do that.
