on Helping Writers become Authors:

For many of us, writing is one of the most important things in our lives. And yet, it can be all too easy to let that “most important thing” end up at the bottom of our to-do list.
If yet another day has passed in which you haven’t been able to write—or a day in which you did write but getting it done was a struggle—you’re not alone.
Time management for writers is possibly one of the key skills of the lifestyle.
This is true whether you write full-time or write around your full-time responsibilities.
