  • Conditions writers can develop
  • What to look out for
  • Why breaks are important
  • The importance of getting up
As always, thanks for listening, and let us know your thoughts on this topic in the comments below.   ABOUT A.J Alexander I'm a fantasy author working on a paranormal romance series, called 'The Council Of Twelve' series,   I have written short stories and poetry in the past. Some of my poems can be read on my blog 'Writer's Treasure Chest.   My rare free time I spend extreme reading, excessive pool swimming, and playing monster-monopoly.   My strongest support system are my sister, most of my family, my friends, and my beautiful senior Maine Coon cat.   Links
