"As usual, our workload has tripled as our internal customers discover they have the same editing deadlines. Using your time sheets and especially your tip about booking only half my time, I now have a way to view the commitments realistically and calmly. No more flying into the office and pounding the keyboard with the first thing that pops into my mind, "just to get it over with."
Setting priorities helps me say no or yes to additional demands on my time and gives me more control. The time management techniques also help me at home. I booked weekend time with myself to work on my manuscript, and my revised synopsis is complete, the blurb is written, and I'm more than 1/3 through the final read-through of the book.
I'm delighted with how well the system works for me."
