I don't have a whole lot of wisdom, I'm afraid. I'm notoriously bad about procrastinating, and where my original writing is concerned I'm horrible about finishing the projects I start.

That week sounds good, really.
I'm going to try to set aside some time. My biggest problem is that my perfectionism gets in the way and prevents me from doing much of anything.
I'm gonna check out that site! Thank you! *hugs*
