I make a list the night before. It has both the mundane (find the text of that interview I did where I said that thing about my mother) and the quixotic (make that second paragraph not be boring). Anyway, it gives me a way forward.
Definitely a fan of that 5 am idea although now that I've started kayaking in the morning (6 am) my writing gets put off to closer to 8 am. Which in my house is relatively quite but its getting pretty noisy in my head.

My understand is that visiting your mother again would make the task far easier. Just trying to be helpful.
List making (Sandra's advice/method) works for me too. Good luck, Sarah. So excited for you and glad you made it back home safely.

I finally got around to reading this post & hope you’ve found a way forward that works!
