Most times, though, I give myself a personal deadline at least a week before the actual deadline. That helps me make my deadline, though the anxiety still remains.Jewel Amethysthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14813773386476356666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5594341074652821017.post-68331411432312694142010-10-30T14:34:49.315-04:002010-10-30T14:34:49.315-04:00At times the dreaded deadline seems to creep up on...At times the dreaded deadline seems to creep up on you like a thief in the night, when you thought there was stil eons of time left. That's when real panic sets in and you have to push the pedal to the metal and really step on it to get project there in time, or as close to deadline as possible.

Probably because when I do have a deadline, everything else in my worlds stops and I focus entirely on the book. I've written on Christmas, New Year's, the day of my grandfather's funeral (he was a hard worker, too, so he would have understood. BTW, I did go to the funeral).Farrah Rochonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13734081434172632431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5594341074652821017.post-91787704317068037662010-10-29T14:53:45.004-04:002010-10-29T14:53:45.004-04:00I am not good at handling deadlines emotionally, w...I am not good at handling deadlines emotionally, which means I usually get my projects done way ahead of time so I won't be so stressed. When I can't, I get very anxious.Charles Gramlichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02052592247572253641noreply@blogger.com
