I blog more when the kids aren't around. Usually out on the deck as that's where I find peace and quiet. I sit so that whoever comes out the back door can see straight away what I am looking at.

As I live in a small unit the computer is in the living room. This means the TV is on and you get distracted by what is on around you. I am one of those people who finds it very hard to get in the zone and any minor distraction is enough to break my concentration. I have tried putting my headphones on and listening to music as I do at work but it is normally not enough. As a result my design projects become non existent and I get very frustrated with myself for wasting time browsing through websites when I could be getting on with projects that I want to do but need focus. Really the only solution is a space of your own that you feel comfortable being in away from all distractions. I have the exact same problem…. minus the kids.

You're the parent. If you were to move your computer someplace quiet and they whinge, what'd be the answer? Mine would be 'Tough shit, children.'

I don't share my bed with anyone though; I imagine if I did that it wouldn't be too practical/conducive to writing.

The side effects were unbearable and initially I couldn't function. Then, as the side effects calmed and I got used to it, my anger and hate that I had been to depressed to act upon destroyed the rest of my youth.
