Generic Writing Whine

[sythyry]

Still haven't gotten to write any more of Wrath of Trees.   I don't seem to have much usable free time this month.  After Rhys' bedtime doesn't seem to be very usable; I'm usually pretty fried, and caffeine at that hour is not a very good idea for me anymore.  I've been trying to write in lunchtimes at work, but  I don't have enough time to finish a section, and  the stuff I've written at lunchtimes has generally been crap.

I'm in a similar boat. I want to get some writing done, but I don't seem to be able to find time or energy to get it done. Forcing it just creates lousy prose, so that's pointless.

Why is writing so much work?

It's not that much work for me. It's just hard to arrange. I need to be reasonably well-rested and awake and energetic, which excludes most eveningtimes. The first half-hour seems to be mostly spent catching up, unless I was writing the same thing the day before, and as of now I'm not even getting to write the week before.
