    How do you ensure you put aside time for writing each day?

    I have found that my writing is taking a backseat to other things lately. I am interested in knowing how you ensure you have time to stay engaged here on HubPages and in other areas of your writing.

    Great question ! I think its almost impossible to" set aside" time to write , life just interupts at will . In my house at least , I find it hard to just 'close the door '  and yet thats what is needed at times , I know that my wife is a bit jealous ? of my writing .  Even resentful at times .

    I have been wondering that as well!  I know ideally a person should write daily, but, for me anyway, with my children it is next to impossible!  I am watching the answers in anticipation! smile

    I don't which is one of my problems in writing. I could squish in some writing while on the campus. However, my writing would not be of good quality. The best way to get good quality writing is to write a couple of pages on the weekends.

    For myself, less TV.  If I have not read at least an hour ( I write book reviews) or at least written one review that day I will not watch tv.  I just started that 2 days ago.  Let's see how it goes. How much TV do you watch?

    Alarm on my phone.  It goes off and that's when I start.  It has no end, it's when I get tired.  Mostly I don't publish though.  I research and write, then I like to do it all at one time, 2-3 articles in one shot.  it's discipline but I understand and relate to you because sometimes I can't stick to a schedule.  If I did, I'd have the body of Miss Universe because I'd work out every morning.  But I don't.  If you love it, you'll do it.  If you love it more, you'll do it all the time.  smile
