Our clocks fall back one hour next weekend, and we all gain an hour.
I began to think about what I can accomplish in an hour.
Commute to work (on the days with lighter traffic)
Make dinner (or make enough for more than one dinner)
Assist my son with his homework (40 minutes fighting/20 minutes working)
Exercise
Clean part of the house
Get groceries
Lunch with a girlfriend
Watch a television show
Or I could write, edit, research, or just make some progress on my current wip.
As November 1st is the start of NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month), why don’t we all pledge to use our found hour to work towards our writing goal?
I look forward to hearing how everyone used their found hour.

It started with dragonflies on a magic summer day in Gainesville Florida. One of those 100+ degree, 100+% humidity (seriously, a clear blue sky supersaturated with humidity, a state of dew), my five-year-old daughter and I rode our bikes around a swamp, and I discovered what faeries are.
