Procrastination.
I should be writing today, or at least editing. The problem with balancing a full time job and trying to launch a writing career is that I never really have free time. I get off work, and then I write. Or I edit. Or I research agents. Or I work on things like building this site so I can feel prepared to pitch. Or I work on my pitch.
Anyone who tells you that writing, or being a writer, or trying to launch a career as a writer isn't hard work is kidding themselves.
So today I have mostly procrastinated. I have watched a lot of netflix and cleaned my house. I've also made a whole can of biscuits that I ate a couple of with scrambled eggs and the delicious vintage aged cheddar they make out in Tilamook.
But now that it is almost five in the evening, I suppose I should get some work done. Yes, this writing and editing is hard work, but in the end, I know it will be worth it.
