23 credits.
An honors thesis.
A busy job.
A trying boyfriend.
Friends and sisters that deserve better from me.
Blogging is always in the back of my mind and while I haven't done it regularly in a couple weeks, it's always on my to do list, never getting crossed off.
How do you guys balance writing and life?
How can I be witty at the end of the day when I all I want to do is fall asleep?
I don't want to give up, but I don't know what else to do...

Why not post once a week?
We can't lose your voice...
Try to write material analogue - and then edit it to the computer when you want to. Recognise your creative voice, and allow it to be expressed. It's not about time or quantity.
Hi Alice,
You have so many balls in the air that it must be very tempting to let some of them drop. This blog will wait patiently (unlike the boy?); is non-assessed (unlike your study); and does not require specific hours (unlike your job). So I suggest that you let it nap in the sunshine and come back every now and then to write some more. It is the thinking part not the writing which takes the time and if you can do that while you are doing something boring but necessary (e.g. laundry) then you will feel good about it again.
I love reading your posts - so if you decide to go away for a while let me know when you are back in town!
You're doing fine. Don't quit.
blogging is something I do when I recognize that I need a break from reading, when I suddenly realize that I've turned the page a dozen times and have no memory of what I've read. It's a chance to get a few things off of my brain and refocus myself... but then, I suppose I could use that time to actually deal with the things worrying me...
