I'm also the person who watches TV while reading while typing while eating. Do you have any sense as to why you do it? Congrats on following The Artist's Way. Three pages per day is about the perfect goal for me.<br /><br />Carmela, thanks for the encouragement. I know it's good that I'm writing, but it's frustrating that I'm not making it a priority to write what I want to write!Jeanne Marie Grunwell Fordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12961675083644536636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3934041490878801751.post-14256806900315396412010-11-09T08:27:47.194-06:002010-11-09T08:27:47.194-06:00Jeanne Marie,

Lewis letters: "Whenever you are fed up with life, start writing. Ink is the great cure for all human ills, as I have found out long ago." " Work' of this kind, though it worries and tortures us, tho' we get sick of it and dissatisfied with it and angry, after all it is the greatest pleasure in life--there is nothing like it." (Gormley, Beatrice. C.S. Lewis: The Man behind Narnia. Grand Rapids, Michigan, 1998, p.41--by the way, this children's biography is a quick look into an intriguing writer's life.)Martha W.noreply@blogger.com
