168 Hours

Wednesday, September 14th, 2011 - Blog, Books For Writers, Places for writers

The book 168 Hours: You Have More Time Than You Think by Laura Vanderkam is a challenging read for any writer. It’s challenging because it asks you to honestly assess how you spend your time, even suggesting you log your hours for 168 hours – the number of hours there are in a week. Then it reveals that, actually, you’re spending lots of the time when you could be writing doing other things. When you truthfully look at what those things are, you might find that there is more time for writing than you previously thought.
