SPRING FEVER


When I put my sandals on the last thing I want to do is sit down and write. I want to enjoy the colors of spring, and all that sunshine. Spring and summer is for getting out and doing. The ease of writing during the darkness is the only good thing about winter.

Do you change your writing habits in the spring and summer? I do, I find myself finding better excuses not to write like planting new flowers, weeding (yes weeding) or spending the day running errands. Why are errands so much more fun in good weather? It has to be the sandals.

I try to combine the two by taking my work outside, but those three birdfeeders I put out this year bring in the most colorful birds. They're so much more interesting than my open laptop.

Spring fever is a serious illness for writers but when the cure is winter, (OMG what a lousy cure) as soon as the sun is down, the laptop is open.

How do you deal with spring and summer distractions?
