Personally, I schedule in my writing since I work a 30 to 36 hour work week. Scribble time is always in the morning except when I'm off, then I flip it to the evening so I can run some errands and a get nap in.
Here's what my schedule looks like 5 days a week.
5 AM Get out of bed and take out dogs
5:30 AM Devotion and prayer
6 AM Breakfast
6:30 AM Breakfast for the dogs
7 AM Walk the dogs
7:30 AM Take myself for a walk
8 - 9 AM A house chore- I clean one room a day
10 AM - 12 NOON- I shoot for a 1000 words
From 12:30 to 2 PM, I'm eating lunch and getting ready for work.
Saturday evenings are used to do research for my articles on Freedom Nation News (which I've been slacking on lately) and Sunday evenings are for writing my blogs. And somewhere between all this stuff, I'm reading a book. If I didn't have a schedule, I can't say I would stick to anything.
PROJECT UPDATE: The Lie is halfway done. It's the project I've been working on. That's why I've hardly been around.
Here's the opening line just for fun:
“I’m
telling you, she’s not normal,” my mom said, the umpteenth time she’d made that
accusation since my divorce from my first husband. “Her vagina looks like a freight
train went right through it.”
