Are you working full time and struggling to find the time and energy to write? I spent over 10 years thinking that I'd need to make it financially so I could buy myself the time to write. Then, about 6 months ago, I got sick of waiting and decided to try writing on the side.
While I am in no way an expert, I'm happy to say that I've been writing/plotting fairly consistently for the last six months. 😀 So if you're struggling to fit writing into your life, I hope this video helps. 🤗

QUESTIONS FOR THE COMMENTS:
- Do you write on the side of full-time commitments? (E.g. a day job, a business, a family or your studies.) How do you fit it in?
- How do you manage your energy and avoid burnout when juggling it all?
TIME STAMPS:
1:09 - Most people DON'T write full time
1:36 - Auditing how you currently spend your time
3:56 - What are you going to say 'no' to? (Note: This might include things you enjoy!)
6:22 - Consider both the time and energetic impact of the things you're doing
8:46 - Creating a writing routine
13:40 - The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, the second best time is today 💜
