Lately, for me, it's that I forgot to put writing first. So I'd get to it if I had time and energy after doing all my freelance work and family stuff for the day. I'm getting back to putting in time before the freelance work, so I know it's getting done.
Before that? Stress. I can't be creative and work when my thoughts are chasing each other around in circles in my brain, worrying over things and hoping I'll find a way out of the loops, out of depression, out of . . . everything.
It's a bit of a catch-22. Not enough freelance work = lots of time to write, but lots of stress over the lack of money coming in. Plenty of freelance work = stress over money decreases, but so does time available to write.
Just started back up with the 30 minutes/day. We'll see how it goes.
