I'm gong to sit here and write TWENTY MINUTES without getting up to do laundry or go the bathroom or try on a pair of new earrings or grab another can of Dr. Pepper out of the fridge or change the radio station or (YOU FILL IN THE BLANK).
This is always what I tell people to do at conferences. Set aside a few minutes every day--a few super FOCUSED minutes--and go for it. SUCH FREAKING EASY ADVICE TO GIVE.
And then after I write, I'm going to do physical therapy on my wrist and hand, i.e. play solitaire with actual cards. I devised this bit of therapy myself and yes. I think I'm pretty much a genius.

when I broke my elbow they made me play the piano for twenty minutes a day. not my favorite twenty minutes. ;-)
You know, if I was there, I'd put you through rigorous therapy. ie war, uno, phase 10, gin rummy, etc...
I do however think that I wouldn't be much help for your writing plan.
I'm leaving in a little bit to work on my own plan. And I'm going to try your FREAKING ADVICE about not getting up for anything.
Well, you are pretty much of a genius, but not only for this reason. That 20 minutes scenario, that right there--well, that's good. I think I'll try it tomorrow.
