You must be the fly on my wall…..except for the audio books which I must try you were spot on..ha ha… but the only problem is that mundane have to do tasks are my dream time and run plot through my brain time but will give audio a try. Have a lovely day 🙂

Thank you, Kristen! This post was so entertaining I kept copy-pasting parts of it to a friend while he’s at work and totally ruined his schedule 🙂
I’m borderline ADD and I find myself doing a lot of the things you mentioned – write 200 words, do a load of laundry – and it works! Before, I used to not even try and write while waiting for the laundry when I know I need to fold and stuff afterwords, but I’ve realised giving up without even trying first is a losing tactic. And you’ve reminded me of that. So, thank you! Oh, look, it’s time for a new load 😀

Reblogged this on writersback and commented: So truthful and helpful. Another great blog from Kristen Lamb. Writing is like swimming up stream upside down. You have to just keep going, like Dori, and have blinders on. I have lost alot of friends by default because well, friends take time and they don't understand it takes all your free time (and more) to write a book. I do have a few patient friends who have stuck with me from the beginning and they get it, I have to stay focused. I tend to be more productive in my writing first thing in the morning (and before dot (daughter) is home from school). So, for several hours I set "little deadlines" for myself, where I won't get that cup of coffee or streudel until I've finished the next chapter. I find I get so immersed I forget about the coffee and then its already lunch time. I save the research for when dot is home and treat it like my homework. Great advice about the water too. Thank you. Kat Kent.

Reblogged this on Fanny Fae and commented: Sometimes having ADD is a blessing and at other times it's a curse. It's nice to know that as a writer afflicted / blessed with this condition, that you aren't alone. KristenLamb wrote a great piece about it.
