Do you find yourself constantly distracted? Does it take away from your writing time? These are the questions for this month's IWSG post. Life is a giant distraction. Mostly it's work that takes me away from writing. My to-do lists are endless. Seems like as soon as I check one item off the list, two more pop up! Can you relate? I admire people who can actually carve out time each day to write. And people who write thousands of words a day? All I can say is WOW!
When I do carve out some writing time, I make sure my phone is on silent. I don't want to hear the constant dinging of message alerts! I also make sure I'm far away from anyone who might distract me. I write in solitude.
Are distractions a problem for you? How do you deal with them?
Here's a distraction for you—a vacation to Virginia Beach! I went there to visit my son, Bubba, who's stationed there (in the Navy). He now has his own apartment. It seems like just yesterday he was chasing butterflies!
And my last bit of news—the fourth book of the Bubba and Squirt series, Bubba and Squirt's Shield of Athena is coming out on May 7th! It went on vacation to Virginia Beach, too!
