Here we run into the ultimate combination–work, school, and children. (This is also our last official post in the writing around life series. If you think I should add anything, or you have any comments, please let me know!) Now,
Writing Around Life: Work/Kids
Like some of the previous combination sections, squiders, we’re going to divide this into work part-time/kids and work full-time/kids. We’re also going to assume you have childcare worked out, whether a family member is watching the children or they attend daycare. WARNING:
Writing Around Life: School/Kids (Older Children)
Good morning, squiders! Is it hot where you live? It’s hot here. Man, summer. Today we’re going to be looking at how to write around both school and older children. Like last week with the younger children section, this will
Writing Around Life: School/Kids (Younger Children)
This post is going to be divided into part-time school/young kids and full-time school/young kids. In this case, young kids essentially means any child who is not also going to school full-time, so infants, toddlers, and pre-schoolers. This is a tough combo,
Writing Around Life: Work/School (Full-time/Part-time)
We’re continuing our work/school combo this week, squiders. This week we’re looking at fitting writing time in when you’re working full-time and going to school part-time, or if you’re going to school full-time and working part-time. We’re not going to

Writing Around Life: Children (Older Children)
Howdy, squiders. Last week we talked about young children. This week, we’re going to discuss older children. The break between the two isn’t exact, but I’d put it somewhere between 7 and 9–old enough that you can trust the kids
Writing Around Life: Children (Younger)
Oh man, squiders, nothing kills your writing productivity like having small children. You’re exhausted, you can’t pee without there being crying, and if you avert your eyes for a second, they’ll have scribbled all over the couch with a marker
Writing Around Life: Work
Just as a head’s up, squiders, June is going to be a rough month for me, so there may be a few weeks where you only get one post a week. Those posts will go up on Wednesdays. And then
Writing Around Life: School (Full-time College)
Good afternoon, squiders! Or at least we shall pretend. Today we’re going to look at strategies for people attending college full-time. This assumes you are carrying a full course load of 12-16 credit hours a semester. College students are notoriously
