While I find the term &#8220;want to be&#8221; writer derogitory, I am game. I&#8217;ll admit I find it more and more difficult to write regularly. But its a choice I make. I can&#8217;t really blame any one or any thing.</p>
<p>The blog post I mentioned suggest you start by writing 20 minutes, 4 days a week. I think that&#8217;s a doable goal. You can do that on your lunch break, before you go to work, or before you go to bed. Or while your sitting in front of the tube.</p>
<p>This is great advise, and I imagine you can try building up to 30 minutes, then 40, and I bet you and I will find more time to write.</p>
<p><em>&#8220;remember what my friend Ken Rand says; <strong>let them say your not a writer, but never let them say you don&#8217;t write.&#8221;</strong></em></p>
