It's been a hot, hot summer since the solstice, and I know I'm not alone in saying that. There have been a couple days where I've considered opening the fridge and building a tent around the door, a la The Simpsons.
Adding to the temperature outside, is the one inside, the one rattling in from my email inboxes, dayjob and writerly.
What am I speaking of? Oh, I'm pretty sure every single one of you knows!
Due dates. Deadlines. Drop deads.
Whether you're agented or not, on submission, querying, or simply trying to get the words out for your first book, there's something to be said about giving yourself (or being given) a completion date. And how you handle it.
With 6 months of 2013 left, I'd love to hear how you guys are dealing with the heat, both outside and when it comes to your writerly projects! Share and share alike! I'm sure there's a lot of us who could benefit from some tips and tricks!

We've had record highs here, too! Work in the morning and the beach in the afternoon. It's the perfect combo. ;)
Some of us are not lucky enough to have a beach (even a lake beach) nearby :( Enjoy it for me!
