I think in my job, I'm a similar sort of busy all year long, with major projects always on the go. But I still manage to have my nights and weekends free for writing - not having a partner or kids helps there. Even if my foster cats are currently consuming a lot of my energy. :(Trishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16927558937796802496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238481189278119116.post-90662429616577003192014-10-26T21:41:10.496+08:002014-10-26T21:41:10.496+08:00Aww, that must be a frustrating point to be at! ha...Aww, that must be a frustrating point to be at! ha.

I'm sure you are going to have a great time writing it this November.<br />I wish I had time to participate but fall is the busiest season at the day job. Maybe I can join up in the winter! <br />I finally linked my blog to my Google plus profile so it's now in my "about" section. For some reason, it kept freezing and then when I used my boss's computer, it worked.
