Two hours. Right now my writing allocation is two hours a day. Honestly, a bit more, but it’s a dedicated two hours in the afternoon.
And I spend a lot of time staring at the wall in front of me or out the window beside me. Probably more than half the time allocated to writing is spent not writing. Not that I’m blocked. In fact, I can really knock out about a five to seven posts in that two hours – so I’m getting ahead of myself.
But I don’t do anything else with that time. It’s either writing or not writing. But it is not reading, or having the tv on in the background, or taking phone calls. It is two hours to write or think about writing.
And staring at the wall.
