Just a quick note to let you know that I'm starting a new podcast soon called Writing for Children (if I haven't already started by the time you hear this). Want to know more? It's going to be pretty awesome and very different from this show. Go to writingforchildren.com to learn more.

This week we're talking about stuff that gets in the way of writing

• Everyone has distractions:
  • Kids (of all ages!)
  • Moving
  • Tech issues
  • Illness - you or someone you love
• How can you find time to spend on your writing?
• How can you develop muscle memory for your writing muscles?
