On Writing

Normally when i write something I do it because I want to with no deadlines no pressure and only the occasional editor to “suggest” alternate ways of writing an area. Man – this writing thing is hard! Deadlines, formats, style sheets, Oh my.

Now don’t get me wrong – I am enjoying the whole thing (sent out my first chapter today). But I have to admit that coming home from work to write and code for 4 hours EVERY day kinda sucks for me and my family. My husband is actually cooking dinner so I have more time to write (granted pizza and hamburger helper is a common dinner choice – but still) – he is doing it!

So to all the authors out there – I salute you. Never again will I pick up a book and not appreciate all the work you went through to make it. Thanks.
