Brooke, you are much more constructive in your meanderings - seeking a travel destination, shopping for a bathing suit (that would send me screaming back to the page!!!), wandering through recipes for tonight's dinner.

I wipe crumbs off the kitchen counter, scoop litter, drink another cup of coffee, and then I take a break.

besides social media my big one is always cleaning. it's just soooo weird how my entire apartment always needs to be cleaned RIGHT at that moment when i am stuck on a project and it absolutely cannot wait, nope. NEEDS to happen right during my writing time or else.

Ha! So true. I love these. I also organize the pantry, the bathroom cabinets, etc... :)

“Describe in longwinded detail the setting in every scene.” Yes. “Shop for new bathing suit.” No. =)
