I personally have to do one thing at a time, so for several days I'll only read a book for annotation, write the annotation, and then read a book for IS, take notes, write that, etc. Generally I try to get the annot. out of the way in the first week (I think of it as power reading), leaving the 2nd week for IS, 3rd & 4th for my own writing (& getting a jump on the next month's readings if there's time). Don't know if that helps, but it works for me.Repeaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05958922007263367129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30540321.post-28874997739669457602007-02-26T12:59:00.000-05:002007-02-26T12:59:00.000-05:00Congrats on getting through a tough week.

I look forward to reading the bus story.<BR/><BR/>As for your question, I struggle with balancing the work for the IS (both reading and writing) with the core submission work. I don't have any suggestions but am hoping some of the others weigh in (I'm especially finding it challenging toggling between nonfiction and fiction--I wonder if I use different parts of my brain?).<BR/><BR/>Keep at it, Bug! :)Idiot Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11865748428499401466noreply@blogger.com
