Zhixinregin asked Nenia Campbell:

I heard that you are now a full time students and even have 2 jobs !!!! what the heck !!! Are you now studying in college or something ? I was also wondering how did you manage your time and cope with your studies, your 2 other jobs as well as your writing where I can tell your readers keep asking you about Escape. P.S. I'm 1 of them,haha,& still love your books <3 Like do you have any tips to it ?

Nenia Campbell Hi, Zhixinregin! Yes, I am back in school. :D I'm not going to lie, it's really difficult, and there are days when I get really stressed out and unhappy. But I keep two calendars (a planner and a wall calendar) and I'm really meticulous about planning out the days where I have major assignments so I can get them done around my work schedule. On my days off, I'll run all my errands and then try to do something nice for myself as a reward, like going to the library or buying boba. I think when you're busy, it's important to take time out of your day to recognize all the hard work that you do! I've been trying to write in my downtime, usually after I finish homework, but before I go to bed, and it's been somewhat effective. I have been working on ESCAPE and several other projects, too, but this semester has been really crazy (I'm taking five classes atm). But I'll have the summer off, and only three classes in the fall, so hopefully that will mean more writing now that I'll just be working. :)
