Each month a question is suggested for a blog idea. This month's was dealing with times of the year when someone is more productive in their writing.
I'm switching it up a bit-- I'm doing when I am less productive.
I realized last year (probably before that, but didn't pay attention ;))-- that I don't do well in summer. Even this summer, where I was in my house all of the time, and working remotely, I did less than other times of the year.
I don't have kids beyond the furry kind, so it's not that.
But, I do work for a college-- and unless you are one of those magical unicorns, a ten-month employee, summer is very busy. We're wrapping up the prior year, setting up the next, and dealing with the summer students.
When I sat back and looked at it, I realized that even though I would work the same amount of hours--that intensity just wiped me out.
The problem is, I don't always look at things like that--but I need to. Knowing when and how you write best and what things can shut you down, is essential for a writer.
So, I guess my best times to write are the other nine months of the year ;). And I'm going to start paying more attention to my writing time!
When are your best times? (or worse ;)).
Happy IWSG Day!
