I find a timer useful when I've been away from writing and I need to get back into it. Setting the timer for 10-20 minutes and sitting at my computer really helps and the next day I want to write again.Anita Chapmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08643609708390860371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086062096420008519.post-46785482752971579112012-08-21T14:01:01.602-04:002012-08-21T14:01:01.602-04:00I'm dreading it, though.

I do lose track of time on occasion, and am late for work or "forget" to mow the lawn. I certainly don't have trouble forcing myself to write.<br /><br />I'm in the same boat as you: my son starts Kindergarten this fall, and I am definitely looking forward to it! I've even considered going part-time at work, just so I can focus on writing. We shall see what happens...Matthew S.

It's a bit like reading--I get lost in the world, and forget about the one I'm actually living in. I think that's essential to writing great fantasy! You can only write a believable world if you get sucked into it. Congrats on having longer days to yourself and your craft.
