Though you say you haven’t found a sense of balance, it sounds like you’re still working in the right direction. Something balance looks more like 80/20 than 50/50. Perhaps it’s the same for you… (and of course, these numbers might change weekly). Life happens, but you’re still pursuing the muse.

I wonder if your Science Fiction Romance is close to what we used to jokingly call Space Opera in the 80’s. If so… I love the stuff, but you’re right… It’s not something that appeals to the diehard Science Fiction enthusiasts.

Boundaries are super important. I know I’ve had to learn those entering into a new relationship and how to write. Thanks for stopping by!

Wow! Visits really cut into writing time, and as much fun as they can be — they are exhausting! I totally understand. Hope you find some peace amidst all of the excitement though. Thanks for stopping by!

I’m trying to write blog posts or articles in my lunch breaks, and then get home and stop from collapsing before I get in the door! (silly full time work).
Was listening to an interesting interview with a successful blogger who said it wasn’t so much about balance as boundaries. You say ‘I’m writing between this time and this time’ and don’t let things distract you but also let other people know so they know when they can count on you. As I’m forever being side-tracked by friends wanting to meet up, or family asking me to do this now and write some other time, this was really good advice for me. Hope it helps you too!

I wish to be even half as productive as your have been. I’ve had three months of house-guests. I’m just about to visit family for two weeks, then I’ve got more houseguest for two weeks! Sorry, I find myself moaning a lot lately 🙂

Well done to you though. 😀 X
