Time Management for Writers

If you are like me, there are never enough hours in the day to write as much as you would like to. You can still write articles and eBook and be successful as an author, if you learn how to manage your time well. I first learned about time management when I was in college. I had to make time for classes, homework, a part-time job, a young family and some kind of a social life. Figuring out how to juggle so many things at once has helped me tremendously now that I write full time.

Figure out what time of day is best for you to write. I like to write several pages early in the morning. This makes me feel like I am making progress on my newest ebook and gives me a sense of accomplishment. Then I go for a walk and come back and write some more. I usually do not do any writing during the afternoon, then I get started again about 8 at night. Write when the time is best for you. Your schedule may have to be adjusted to do this. Commit to writing for a specific amount of time each day, even if that is just a half an hour in the beginning. You, too, can write your eBook now!
