The Insecure Writer's Support Group

I'm hoping to submit some revisions today. That's enough to make any writer insecure. Other than that my major insecurity is just finding the time to write, because people look at housewives and think "Wow, lucky you. You don't have to work." but taking care of a new born is more work than just going to work.

I managed to write 15 pages Sunday night while holding my baby. I've found an easy solution. You just put the baby's head in your elbow and your other arm under her legs, push the lap top back far enough there is room for baby on table and lean into it. You can type and if baby rolls, it rolls into you. Ha!

I think I'm more of an insecure mother than an insecure writer today. Because if I only pick the baby up when she is crying does that mean she's not getting held enough? (Although, she usually cries when she is awake). Or am I a bad mom because I can't sit and hold her all day? I love my daughter, but I have so much to do. It's just not possible.

So that's where I am today. Looking forward to your insecurities.
