You just write when you can, submit when you can and take the month off when you need to. Pays to have a nice little flexible critique group such as we are:-)<br /><br />I like your idea of keeping track of what is accompolished in a day. Seems more effective than having a never ending list of TTDs to scratch off if and when accomplished.<br /><br />Take care, dear friend, and enjoy the return to the outside working world.<br /><br />KarinKarin Larsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09940279659364365138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2101913249655237910.post-45381460528311854192013-01-29T07:06:36.352-06:002013-01-29T07:06:36.352-06:00Karin,

In fact, it's 29 January, only one day before I submit to the very same critique group and I am feeling the exact same way, overwhelmed! So much so, that I have considered-more than once-withdrawing from the group to alleviate the pressure. But, then I realized that would accomplish only one thing, I would stop writing all together because I am accountable to no one because being accountable to myself clearly isn't working. I am disappointed in my lack of writing discipline and cannot honestly point to one aspect of my life that I am happy with because I feel on top of it, not one! So, I've resorted to keeping a list of all the things I do manage to accomplish in a day so I can look back at the end of the day and say, "Ah-hah, that's how I spent my time. I actually got a lot done," even if it isn't writing. <br /> <br />Happy writing to you as well!MarilynPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03043173827817520147noreply@blogger.com
