How do you keep up with your writing? You have multiple series going on and yet you still get new books out for all them. I fail to even get a single book complete let alone multiple >.<

Jaymin Eve Hi! It's definitely tough, I have to work very hard and be quite disciplined about keeping up with releases. The hardest part for me is that I have two little girls 3 and 1.5yrs. They take up the bulk of my time and finding a balance to still get writing in is hard most days.

I'm lucky to be a fast writer though, this is the only thing which saves me, because I don't have more than an hour or two a day to dedicate to writing.

Don't beat yourself up, just take it one day at a time. One release at a time, and try to stay focused on that one book. Writing is like any job, you have to try and sit down every day and write. Even if one day you only jot 50 words, and the next you smash out 5000. It's just about dedicating yourself to your work.

Plus my characters bug me if I don't write every day :D chatting away in my head - I'd go insane if I didn't get the words/worlds out.

Good luck with your writing!

P.s It will get easier with time (the first book I wrote was the hardest and most time consuming. It was all about learning my craft, honing and perfecting. And this continues with every single book. I don't think you ever stop learning).
