It's hard to overcome the desire for that one thing that will make the writing flow. It becomes a stalling tactic for me.

I've given up on being frustrated that I need them. I do my best work when I'm not at home and that's all there is to it. Glad you were able to get some work done, Mx!

Singing their sweet music of love. <br /><br />I'm sure part of it is getting away from distractions in the home (tv, laundry, telephone, dusting) and having compadres who are there with me - expecting me to write and writing with me.Marjannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11083230901251977159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5115759973832197426.post-66395095787192904052011-08-22T18:49:26.166-04:002011-08-22T18:49:26.166-04:00LOL!

As you know, my favorite (insert most productive) writing space is at Panera. I don't know what it is, but there's something about that particular spot that allows me to push the world away and get down to business. We all need to find our Zen spot where we can go to to do the hard work that is writing. Glad you got away and were able to pound out he beginning of that novella.
