Making Time to Write vs Finding Time to Write

I believe I have a pretty solid work ethic. When I need to write, I do. I haven’t missed a deadline yet. I’m usually successful in my chapter’s monthly Book-In-A-Week Challenge.

I thought August was going to be an amazing writing month for me. I had a long writers’ weekend scheduled. I knew exactly what I wanted to do.

Life, however, had other ideas. Between car issues, family issues, DayJob issues, and uncooperative “Smart Quotes”, I haven’t accomplished what I wanted. Now I’m at the Need to Accomplish stage. I can no longer “find” time to write; I must make time to write.

That deadline looms.
