So Since You're Reading This...

I bet that you struggle as much as I do with juggling social media, blogs and various other online forms of procrastination with actual real writing time. So today, I'm over on Writer Unboxed coming clean about my struggle to balance all of these things, some of which, let's be clear (I forgot to say this in that post), I think are very beneficial to a writer. These days, like it or not, part of being a successful writer is having a wide platform, and outlets like Twitter help you establish that, so even if my tweets seem like a waste of time (and sometimes, they are), most of the time, they're not. But how do you ensure that your time doesn't all get sucked into the great big social media black hole? I'm still working on perfecting this formula, but in the meantime, I'm discussing it here. Come over and share your own strategies!

I struggle with this myself. I am very tempted to ban myself from Facebook for a week to see how much more I could be doing with that time.
