My family has sort of gotten used to it and manages when I'm gone. I do take a laptop and try to write when I travel, but it can be difficult. School visits, especially, require a lot of energy, and when you do 3 or 4 presentations in a day, you get back to your hotel room, ready to crash. Balance is hard sometimes... the need to write versus the need to promote. Balance can also be hard at home, with the demands of work, family, pets, household stuff, etc. How do you handle balancing your writing with the daily stuff?

However, I do have a difficult time finding time to write. I usually write during my lunch breaks at work. I know, that only gives me 45 minutes to an hour, but it's usually pretty productive. However, I also use that time to do critiques for my critique group, honey-dos, and other necessaries, and those take a huge bite out of my writing schedule, leaving me with about 1 to 2 hours per week to actually do any writing. It sucks. ---------------------------------------------------- "A novel is a train of thought pulled by a theme engine" - Oscar Collier Please visit my website at http://valona.blogspot.com/

On one hand, (okay two) I really need to promote my book. But I also need to write. Sometimes, before I know it, the day is going and I've done no writing.
