Prioritise your time for writing and don’t let anything non-essential distract you. The only way I managed to get my books finished was by giving up a lot of other things – social events, watching TV, housework, gardening, reading, sleep... With three kids and a day job, my spare time is scarce so I devoted it entirely to writing and sometimes it was exhausting and hard, i.e. I made myself quite ill a couple of times and on occasion got so tired I was weepy and looked like a zombie extra from the Walking Dead.
