She loves to recommend doing things for 15 minutes at a time. And set a timer so you don't forget to stop. It really does make a big difference for me. I may not finish something in a day, but at least I have the satisfaction of knowing that I worked on it!<br /><br />Definitely, you need to read, our minds tend to rot if we Peachtreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15069179745212269225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3489628946675519296.post-44370506021007746802009-07-08T07:57:13.045-07:002009-07-08T07:57:13.045-07:00Please, please don't stop blogging.

Librivox has a lot of older books and I'm sure there are many other places online too. But then again, midwifery books might be kind of hard to follow on audio!Anna @ Feminine Adventureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14950485687773516711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3489628946675519296.post-69297268669594699072009-07-08T07:56:07.536-07:002009-07-08T07:56:07.536-07:00Hey Mary,

You are a great writer and it will greatly enhance your writing if you expand your horizon with reading more and also listening more. Charles Spurgeon is still a popular author today and his writing was greatly impacted by his large library. <br /><br />And I think you will find that as you read...you will discover even more to Joy Ringnaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15725603760791072755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3489628946675519296.post-12077917179559116072009-07-08T05:36:41.997-07:002009-07-08T05:36:41.997-07:00How do bestselling authors blog on such a tight sc...How do bestselling authors blog on such a tight schedule? I've often wondered. They speak of deadlines and their blogs have dry spells but mostly they blog on a consistent basis. And they still have time to do book reviews??<br /><br />I want to know how they do it!! Because my bookshelves have been collecting more dust than usual as of late.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3489628946675519296.post-37483848274071594622009-07-08T05:32:58.900-07:002009-07-08T05:32:58.900-07:00Thank you, Laurel!

Maybe I'll do a limited amount of both. :)Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13299954938590112630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3489628946675519296.post-63806850656575083032009-07-07T23:15:45.625-07:002009-07-07T23:15:45.625-07:00By the way, I'd dearly love to see you sometim...By the way, I'd dearly love to see you sometime.

I definitely don't see stopping blogging as the answer.<br /><br />At the same time, I see your quandary. It seems it's the issue of balance, doesn't it? I don't have any pat answers, but I will be praying for Laurelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00404082702079024341noreply@blogger.com
