What do you do if your computer is off limits most of the time and your workspace is disrupted? Can you shift to longhand for awhile? or will all your forward progress die?
I've had to answer these questions for the next couple of weeks.
The Situation:
We live in an "Old Lady House" that needs regular TLC. Check out this old blogpost for some more on the housework. As you can see, it is always a work in progress.
And the time has come that we must refloor. We don't have a choice. We have to put down new sub flooring, carpet, and tile. The study is one of the rooms on the to do list.
The Solution:
I'm happy to say, I've figured out how to keep working. ; )
The writing desk I use to draft longhand has been moved to the solarium. I have a backlog of writing magazines I need to read and a book on parenting that I need to read for research for FRIENDLY FIRE. Add several other projects I've been putting off, and I'm being very productive while John paints, hammers, and works in the study, living room, dining room, etc.
So, what about you?
Do you have contingency plans for a "rainy day" of writing?
