Do you ever think about what you would do if you were a professional, full-time writer? What your daily routine would be? I do.
I would wake up around 6 to exercise (run/lift weights) for an hour. I would shower, dress, and be eating breakfast by 7:30. From 7:30 - 8:00 I would plan the work I wanted to accomplish that day.
I would write from 8:00 am - 12:00, at which point I would break for lunch and read my book. Depending on my motivation, I would potentially spend the next hour running errands or doing paperwork. Around 2, I would return to work and write until 5, at which point I would begin to prepare dinner.
After dinner, no work (unless, of course, I felt like it) - free time. Hit up a yoga class, read my book, watch a movie, hang out with friends/family.
Is this a realistic writer’s schedule? I have no idea. Is it a lovely daydream? Yes.
