I’m normally at my computer writing by 6:30 or 7 in the morning. I’m one of those folks who likes getting up at first light and mornings are my most creative time. It’s just flat easier to write in the morning for me than at any other time.

I’m going through one of those periods that astrologers lay off to mars in retrograde… lots of smallish things going wrong, and a couple of larger ones too. I won’t go into all the details, but I’m also having trouble with a clients, and I’d like your advice.
