Maud talked a lot in her journals about how hard it was to write amid constant interruptions. I feel her pain! Of course, it's my own fault, I suppose, trying to write at work. Oh, don't worry; I'm not sneaking it - they know. And there's generally enough down time for me to get a good bit of work done, which I'm grateful for. How many writers can write at a day job? But it's not without its drawbacks. The phone rings, someone asks me to do something, delivery services arrive - and this week I'm finding it quite annoying. These last 2 sequences I've written (So I Say Farewell and More Important Things) have been very complicated by nature and have required a lot of further research and concentration, and it's a wonder I've gotten anything written with everything conspiring to throw off my train of thought! How did Maud do it?

But I did it, too...as of now I have written 10 scenes with 6 songs within them. I'm at least grateful that I'm in such a prolific phase.
