Sometimes it feels like there aren't enough hours in a day to get everything done.

Often I feel that projects overwhelm us when we look at how many hours are involved until completion. But just getting started is usually not that difficult.

I discovered that the best thing for me was to be very busy all the time. I can get a lot done, and I can do those tasks well.

I can handle a lot of work. I've always been able to. I'm a very focused individual. I come to my studio at about 7:30 in the morning and exit almost 5:00 P.M. In that time, those eight or nine hours, it's kind of laser focus on whatever I'm working on. There aren't really any distractions or anything.

I'm a full-time writer, which means I have the entire day to get my work done. But that can also be bad, because that means I have the entire day to get in my way.

Sometimes you will think you can't take it another day. But if you hang in there, one step at a time, you will be able to accomplish more than you ever imagine.

I feel I've done the 10,000 hours you have to do to get good at something.

Because of the pace of daytime, you don't necessarily have time to work every detail of your character, so you have to bring a lot of it yourself.

I am putting every effort toward creating my works from morning till night on every single day.

I don't have many hours in a day, as I'm essentially a single parent. But fortunately, I'm a really fast writer. My goal is usually 10 pages a day. Sometimes more, sometimes less, but by the end of the week, I aim for at least 10,000 words.
