What is it, exactly, that I’m supposed to be doing? I get bored. I’m not sure what to do with all that time. I feel that I should immediately start crafting another novel–but what should this one be about? I had such a fabulous time writing from the perspective of my male characters in SP […]

I hate it when you’re so exhausted all you want to do is sleep, yet you don’t want to go to bed too early because what that actually means is you’re going to work that much sooner. Ugh.
