Now I'm no whiner but sometimes writing just feels like a whole bunch of hardwork.

I have to think think think in many different ways. For instance, as a part of my job, I'm trying to construct a small 'how to' guide relating to the business I work for (social toursim) and it's taking some doing. Maybe because I've never written a book, maybe because the subject matter is beyond my expertise and I'm having to research before I write?

Then there's hubpages. It's so damn easy to get drawn in. I try and write, read and comment, participate in the forums. But the three together take some doing. I can't bring myself to cheat - as in not actually read an article prior to commenting. I'd rather go back several times and re-read something (that doesn't sink in) ... then post ... as opposed to spew some random crap that I don't mean. And I aim to reply to everyone that's taken the time to comment on my hubs. Not because I'm a brown noser, it's polite (to me anyway) but that in itself sometimes takes up a fair mount of time.

Anyway ... I feel a bit stretched right now. I'm also trying to understand SEO so I'm interspersing my efforts to write by also self-teaching. And don't get me started on Drupal!

I only thought about all this due to the fact that yesterday I had a blinding headace all damn day. Probably eye or brain strain ...

And in and among all the above nonsense I've got a life to live. Though I admit that it's an interesting one ...

I think I need a night off/out and a few shots of some good black vodka ...
