I am one of the lucky people who feels like writing is as natural to me as breathing! My biggest problem is not having the time I need/want to work on my own projects because I am so busy with helping clients and authors. But when I do have time, I am inspired by whatever is going on around me. Hot topics in the news, things that are troubling parents or bloggers like myself, or cool/useful information or booklists that I think my followers would find useful. Inspiration is all around us :)

Work on your book a little everyday. A writer friend (a successful/published writer!) told me she writes every day-even when she doesn't feel like it. If she can sit down and write for 15 minutes she then gets her "groove" and is able to put in some serious time on her book. Find your optimum time of day (early morning, late at night after the kids are in bed) and make an appointment with yourself DAILY to WRITE.

There are several ways to make $$ as a "side hustle" (equiv. of a PT job). The best way. I believe. is to identify what skills you have (writing, admin work, social media) and offer those services to client. Whatever knowledge you have in your head, someone somewhere will be willing to pay you for that knowledge. That is a what virtual assistant does. If being a service provider isn't your thing, I would also suggest checking into direct sales(Tastefully Simple, LuLaRoe etc). Another way to earn an income is to offer a service locally. Pet sit, daycare, personal shopper, house cleaner. If you have more interest in the virtual assistant piece, go to my website (Franticmommy.com) and scroll down the right sidebar. I have a free VA Starter Kit you can download. I hope this helps!
