Just saw this posted on the Gram:
“A writer never finds the time to write. A writer makes it. If you don’t have the drive, the discipline, and the desire, then you can have all the talent in the world, and you aren’t going to finish a book.” – Nora Roberts
The person who posted that did so with this caption: “Finding time to write is a struggle… anyone want to share suggestions of ways they make time to write?”
It occurred to me I do have a suggestion, the supersuggestion, without which no other suggestion is possible.
Take one or more things you spend time doing, and
Stop doing them.
Or, do less of them.
These things may include, but are not limited to:
None of these have been ranked as to how likely you are to want to spend less time on them, and it’s not an exhaustive list.
Regardless. How you make time to write is, you spend less time doing every other thing in the entire universe that ISN’T WRITING, and you spend that time WRITING, instead.
You’re welcome.
