Tuesday night writing

What I like best about it is that the time is already blocked out. No scheduling anxiety—it's already set aside, and no one's going to interrupt us.

What I like least (No reflection on the group; just personal preference) is writing in a big group of people.

On the other hand, I grew up in a big family in a small house— we shut out whatever was going on around us in order to write, practice guitar, read...

And on the other hand—more "hands" than an octopus—the energy of concentration multiplied by 15 or so is very strong and feels good.

So, overall, I'm grateful to have the time and place to write when I ordinarily wouldn't have it.

    I too think it was great to have the time and place to write. I liked being forced to use time to write because if I had been left to my own devices it probably wouldn't have been done. I would have waited til the weekend or some other random time to write only a bit and another time to write the other bit.

    I thought a big group would affect me, too, but like you said, blocking other people out is not difficult with practice.

    The energy was so great, I don't think I could have gotten as much good stuff in if the energy level wasn't pumped.
