And as most of you know I write in the mornings, when I am fresh and the day is young. Although, according to the June, "O Magazine," Feeling Good feature, "On The Clock," I should be the most creative at 4:30 in the afternoon. And perhaps, there in lies the problem; if I wait until that late in the day I won't write at all.
It is no secret, since I shouted it from my blog, that I had a few holes, as Maggie Mae put it, while working on my book. I untangled one mess, only to come across another and it seemed so daunting I wondered if I should just give up altogether...abandon ship! After all, I thought to myself, I'd have more free time for Milo visits.
And so during my daily ritual of writing I commented to Daughter that I thought it was all very, very bad and I wanted to stop. Daughter, though, without skipping a beat, blurted out, "No, you are not. You keep on writing and don't look back." And so I set about writing the next day and the next and maybe it's not half bad. So, thank you Daughter for the swift kick of encouragement. I still write in the morning; Oprah will just have to understand.
