I have had my head buried in website redesign amongst other things, and I have so many images I could be making instead. Thanks for the great reminder!

Dianne: interesting idea, keeping such a detailed log of your studio time. I tried that once, and it didn't work for me. Instead, I am going to try to keep track of my productivity. I'm going to look at how many new photographs I added to my website last year, and increase that amount (regardless of how much or little time it takes). I'm hoping that *this* will keep me motivated! I think having spring in the air is causing us all to get a little jumpy and want to make more art!

I just started tracking my time and was upset to see how little time I spend actually working on my photography. I found a program that is helping me record my time and what I am working on - freshbooks.com. It's been very illuminating..... Funny you should write about this.

I had the same wake up call this week. Instead of spending all my time ruminating about what to do with existing work, I have set myself goals for the next few months. The goals are connected to marketing opportunities, but still, they require long hours of creating art—new ideas—pushing myself. I am looking forward to the challenge! I’m in!
