IWSG: Getting my Writing Time Back


This week marks the end of our B&B season. I've waved good bye to our last clients, locked the doors, and let out a big sigh. I'm always a bit sad when the season ends, no more meeting and chatting with interesting people. No more getting up at 6:30am to bring them breakfast, no more washing tons of towels and bed sheets. No more ironing duvet covers, pillow covers, and fitted sheets.... or waiting tirelessly for clients to arrive who are almost always late and never call ahead ....

Yeah, did I say sad?

My bad.

I meant....



and maybe a bit of.....




But what this really means is that I'll be doing a lot more of this >>>>

WRITING and PLOTTING and BLOGGING, OH MY!

I hope you all manage to find the time to write, sometimes it comes in waves, for me that means high tide every 6 months. The trick is, making the best of the time you do get for writing. 

Happy writing everyone and see you all soon on the blogosphere!

Thank you to everyone in the IWSG. I'm posting away from home and have limited internet connection, but I'll be visiting everyone when I get back tomorrow!

    1. Only the naughty ones... which is a problem because most of them have been so lovely!

  10. Your clients sow the seeds of future stories in your unconscious, and your writing will be the richer for it. Good to see you back ... and your front, too. :-)

  15. I think it's really cool that you're an entomologist that owns a B&B in France. That's like a character fit for a romantic comedy that I need to write.
