By this I mean, when I'm not behind the computer researching, submitting, writing, editing, and re, re, re editing, I read. I feel guilty because I need to work. But, the great news is that reading, at least I think, will only improve my writing skills.
Not that it feels good to cheat. But cheating by reading? It could be worse, I know. In this second lifetime, or, growing up again, I had ways of cheating that should have destroyed me. Which brings me to my memoir. If I'm not working, say, on an assigned article, I could be editing that 60,000 word, not yet released manuscript. Not yet released because I completed only the first version, now it's time to go back and get it ready for a literary agent.
The thing about working from home and writing is, at least for me, I work, usually, seven days a week. The exception being days that I just - read. So more good news is that by writing, reading, I'm never bored.
So what do you do when you cheat?
