    AFJ. Aimee – I ususally get up about 7:30 to 8:00 am, feed the cat, open the coeptumr and deal with fanmail for about half an hour to an hour. Then I will re-read the last 20 or so pages of the previous day’s writing, and then get going on new stuff. I usually work at the coeptumr for about 4 hours or so. Then in the afternoon, I will be thinking about what I’m going to write the next morning. I need to write about 2000 words a day, but if I try to write more, it often comes out really bad – and that means I have to rewrite it the next day. I do this six days a week.
