I'm a mom and an author, those are my full time jobs. In between breakfast and getting the kids off to school, I'm thinking about plots. While helping with homework, making dinner or getting it on the table, I'm looking at my character's motivation. So in between that my mind need to decompress, if not I'd be bat shit crazy within a few months. I dance it out at clubs with friends and my DH or I go to movies (a lot of movies) but I'm always looking for ways to relax and get away from the words. My new love is painting. Myself and Tressie Lockwood took a painting class and I fell in love with this new medium to release tension.
