I love hearing why and how other people write - we're all so different :)<br /><br />Kids definitely put a cramp in the time for writing - especially when they're so young.

It really teaches you to just sit down and write the minute the bedroom door is closed :)<br /><br />Good LuckAlix https://www.blogger.com/profile/04684209302932310537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8521674859812330018.post-852540789263690022010-06-16T13:42:11.779-04:002010-06-16T13:42:11.779-04:00Ah the plot bunnies.
