Show Up At The Page

Now that I have two kids, I'm really understanding the whole "room of one's own" thing in a visceral way.

But I'm also learning that if things aren't going the way I want them to, I usually have only myself to blame. Laziness and procrastination are easy drinking buddies, but they leave behind a nasty hangover. I can't call myself a writer if I don't write, the bills won't pay themselves, and if I'm not being treated the way I want then I better fix the circumstances and the terms, because no one else will.

Sometimes I just have to kick my own ass. I hate that.

It's always easier to give that type of advice than it is to take it...
