Wouldn’t it be great if we could all take a solo writer’s getaway to a cozy little cabin on an island in the center of a pristine lake accessible only by rowboat?

It would have a fully stocked pantry and refrigerator, Internet access, plenty of natural lighting, and a reliable computer where we could devote hours to writing chapter after chapter of that book we’ve been trying to write for years.

Best of all? No one would bother us.

While life like that sure would be nice, it’s not a reality for most aspiring writers. Many of us have full-time jobs that don’t involve writing, a spouse and/or kids chomping at the bit for our attention as soon as we get off work, and a host of other responsibilities.
