As you may have spotted, for the mont...Hi Pernille<br /><br />As you may have spotted, for the month of February, I'm taking a Sabbatical from Twitter. I'm determined to break the back of this rewrite & didn't need the distraction. And just by deleting it from my favourites it's been easy to put out of my mind.<br /><br />I agree 100% with the idea that too much bloggery can kill creativity. Where most people's writing blogs are concerned - I'm rarely tempted. There's too much repetition for one thing. Either that or they are written by people with dubious credentials. The few I do enjoy, I leave to one side for times when I can enjoy reading them without feeling guilty.<br /><br />I allow half an hour or thereabouts each day for my Live Journal - which is less a blog & more a sort of 'daily pages' to get my writing muscles flexed.<br /><br />My writing time is 90% sacrosanct. 9.30-ish until around one o'clock six days a week. I leave space for a social life & the unexpected! By & large though - I try & put in the hours.<br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
