Elizabeth – Such great links this week on ‘how to manage it all.’ I really am interested in how others ‘do it all.’
When the hero is his own worst enemy? Hey, that’s my main character!
Alex–And a great worst enemy he is!
Margot–Me too. :) When I try to do it all, something definitely suffers in the process!
I’m trying (a little desperately) to become more of a plotter so I’m off to check out a couple of these links – thanks! Hope you have a great week ahead :)
I’m leaving this page up so I can dig in to all of these tomorrow. Thanks so much!
