So they create a schedule that is almost impossible to follow - like write for 2 to 3 hours every single day. Most of them are so relieved when I tell them to go easier on themselves. I also tell them, we all have schedule changes now and then. The successful writers don't let this keep them from writing. They just adjust with the changes. <br /><br />Happy writing!<br /><br />Suzanne<br />A to Z Challenge participant<br />www.writingforchildrencenter.com<br />www.creativecaravanclub.comSuzanne Lieurancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11844924439366800477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1672638531152489738.post-71777948117443063742015-04-03T12:45:05.484+01:002015-04-03T12:45:05.484+01:00I think this is very easy advice to give and hear ...I think this is very easy advice to give and hear but somewhat more tricky to put into practice.
