I have a routine, but it's a two-edged sword. I get into my office every morning and start writing. Often it's very difficult to get my thoughts into sentences. I try sentence after sentence. After 2-3 hours, I'm exhausted. I take a break, maybe for an hour. But I feel my writing energy gone for the day. It's shameful. I have to keep going. All I can say is "gonna make it to the moon if I hafta crawl."
