How to Battle One of a Writer's Worst Enemies—PROCRASTINATION


by Edie Melson @EdieMelson

I have confession to make. I am and world class master at procrastination. If I'm on a deadline I can find more things—non writing related—to keep me away from the computer. Some of my favorites include:
  • Cleaning out my shoes
  • Organizing my craft closet
  • Deep-cleaning the bathrooms
  • Rearranging my phone screens and apps
  • Planting a garden (did I mention I am not and have never been a gardener?)
  • Scheduling a mammogram (okay this one IS important, but normally I should have done it months earlier and I'm now using it as an excuse)
I think you get the idea. 

Don't get me wrong though. I love writing. And I love talking about writing.
