(In the Whisper) Q & A With Caryn Rivadeneira, Author or the new book "Grumble Hallelujah"

Q) What does a “typical” writing day look like for you, and how do you juggle a book and the many articles and smaller projects you also create?

My writing day is quite random. I wake up pretty early to get something””anything!””written. Usually about 5:30 or 6 am. Then I get my two of my three kids off to school and hope the youngest keeps sleeping so I can work more. Some days””when my youngest is in preschool””I have actual alone time. Other days I just fit it in when I can.

I wrote my first book at night. I can’t do that anymore. Just too wiped. Right now I’m writing this while my kids watch SpongeBob.

Read it all.
