I relate to your following point, "When we do feel in the right head space to write, even if it's just for a few minutes, sit down and write, even just a few lines. This way some of those thoughts swimming around in our heads won't get lost. It happens. And it's maddening." I try to write down thoughts as they come to me before I forget them. Like I said, "I try," to do this, but at times I still forget. I keep a notebook by my bed in case I wake up with a thought to write down. This works for me. <br />Alan Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01192838076987472527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-81788505202923197812023-03-28T17:31:36.636-07:002023-03-28T17:31:36.636-07:00Sorry, Gloria.

I totally relate to what you have shared so clearly and love that I can embrace 'Crunch Time Writer' as my inherent style while aspiring to be more disciplined. Your tips are helpful and I have found being part of a writing group with a monthly expectation has indeed been helpful.

The following quote from your words is something I can relate to in a crunched-for-time-sort-of-way: "...all those days and weeks leading up to the deadline, I'm actually forming it all in my head. I then sit down and let it spill out on to the page." <br />In my upcoming post I shared similar thoughts about my writing habits during college.<br />There's nothing like a deadline to kick start a writer's adrenaline.<br />Blessings.Wendy L.
