Day 15 – Late Night Writing

Waiting until 9 pm to write is not a great idea. My morning routine of reading and writing was supplanted by preparations for a workshop for which I had logistic responsibility. Making coffee took precedence over turning the pages of a good book and setting up the day’s food took priority over my early morning writing. Now I’m left with a numb mind and a groggy disposition. I’m gutting my way through the process and wonder how many times out of 365 days I’ll leave my commitment to writing until near bedtime. I don’t have a minimum requirement for the number of words. I try to write at least 15 minutes and for no longer than 31 minutes. According to the clock I’ve met my minimum so that’s it for now.
