The Writing Life: Making Time When You Have None

>with Laynie Browne, Eric Magrane, and Elizabeth Rollins
Sunday, March 13, 10:00 am, ILC 151

In this panel, authors will discuss the (creative) ways in which they balance hectic schedules and still find time to write. How does a writer find time to write when balancing a full-time job at work and at home? Here we’ll look at strategies to help busy writers effectively manage their writing time, as well as provide “on-the-go” writing exercises for those moments when all you can spare is a quarter-hour or less.
