How can you chart your writing time when you don't have any? What I mean with this: to find out possible time slots you could use for writing, you should pay attention to how you are using your time now.
|
Have a good look at your list and see if there are time slots you could have used for writing. And I don't mean only actual typing: walking your dog could be a perfect time to plot your story. Or maybe dictate it (if you find a decent dictation program that you can train to your way of speaking). Use a highlighter to mark those times you could have used for writing. Do these time slots repeat? Could you use those times to write a few words? To plan your story?
Make it into a habit to plan your week beforehand. Look at those time slots you found you could use for writing and write them in your calendar as writing time. When you write them down, you are telling your subconscious that next week you won't let those precious time slots slip by. And keep your calendar open somewhere you can see it. Mark down the times you used for writing with a different color perhaps. That way, when you leaf through your calendar later on, you see what you have accomplished. It motivates you to keep finding those minutes you could use for writing.
