Frustrations
Dangit.
I've just reached the point in my story where, if I could sit still and write for six hours straight, I could probably come pretty close to finishing it. The problem is, I think the next time I will have a free six-hour block of time is probably sometime in March.
In the meantime, I've been stealing the hours between 10:30 and midnight every night to do as much as I can, plus an occasional stray lunch hour and the time between 6:30 and 7:15 am every morning (the time between when the alarm goes off and when I need to get ready for work).
It's just not enough.
And it's frustrating, because I find myself waking up at 5:30 with little plot bits whirling around in my head ... I should just get up then, and get the darned things out of my head, but I know I also need the sleep, but who can sleep when they're rushing down a big hill on the roller coaster?
*whine!*
