A Typical Day in My Life

Here's a typical weekday for me:

6 a.m. Get up
7:30 a.m. At work already
Mid-morning Check yahoo e-mail for FF&P and PRO mail
Lunch Write in blog
Afternoon Check yahoo ID again
5:00 p.m. Go home
6:00 p.m. Eat dinner, take a nap
7:30 p.m. Work on latest book
10:00 p.m. Go to bed

On the weekends I do chores, run around with my dogs, hang with my husband, but try to write at least 3-4 hours per day. That way weekly I tend to make quite a bit of progress on any given writing project. The downside to this is that I have NO life other than day job and writing. The upside to this is that I finished three books in the last year in addition to working my full time job.

I figure I've been working upwards of 70 hours a week that entire time. This, of course, wouldn't be possible if I had kids, but I don't. I figure three dogs and two cats are enough children for me. It's not that I don't love kids, but it's a matter of priorities. I couldn't live this way and have kids.

I'd rather write than almost anything else in life anyway. Except spend time with the hubby and the dogs. :-)

And if it actually gets me somewhere, all the better!
