Not only am I a huge procrastinator, I only want to do things when it's time to do something else. I've had at least three strong plot ideas that I spent the summer kicking around to no avail. But, now that my editor has offered me a pre-plotted story to write (Sex and the Single Braddock, September '08) I suddenly have all these ideas for other stories.

But, since my deadline is January, and I'm hoping not to write during the Christmas holiday, I can't afford to spend time on any book besides the one I'm being paid for. I wish I could say I was a disciplined as other writers. Some of them write multiple books at a time. I did that once, and never again. I think that process is what brought about the bought of writer fatigue that I experienced afterward.

But, I guess this kind of thing makes sense in my life. I only want to do laundry when I'm supposed to be sitting at my computer writing.
