Trying to keep up with e-mail without letting it control my life | teslastemptress's Blog

     I am like most people who blog, in that I have e-mail accounts to correspond with those who share my experiences, or those who just want to make comments. I am finding that many people have just one, or sometimes two e-mail accounts. I don't want to disclose the actual number of e-mail accounts, blogs sites, and social networking sites that I belong to, (I actually haven't counted and don't really want to take the time too.), let's just say it is more than five. Yep, that is a big number. Especially when you consider the amount of time that it takes the average person to maintain one e-mail account is approximately 45 minutes per day. ( I read it some where) 45 minutes times 5 accounts, (I know, I have more), is almost four hours. There is just no way that I can spend that amount of time just on e-mail. I wish I had that amount of time to devote just to writing! What I am trying to do is to become a well rounded and seasoned writer. The only way that I can do that is to write what I feel when I feel it. I can't stop in the middle of a thought, sentence paragraph or word to just chat about stuff. I really want to finish my creation, thoughts, characters etc. What I want to tell everyone is that if you send me an e-mail, and I don't get to it right away, it is not that I don't want to, I just am pressed for time. I try to keep up with all of it, I really do. I try to get to circle requests as quickly as they come in, and if I miss anyone, I do apologize in advance. I also want to make it a point here to say that I won't do certain things with my e-mail or chat. I DO NOT DO CYBERSEX. I write erotica. Stories to share. I do not want to have a cyber affair, or phone sex, or email sex. I want to WRITE! I want to write stories that will move people's emotions. I want to create a painting in the minds of the readers using words as my palette. I love comments, both good and bad. I also enjoy a nice hello in the morning too. It kind of reminds me of times when I actually shared a work space with other people. I know the little blue "I'm on line" guy is there to set, I just don't always remember to use it. Other times I don't want to use it because it makes me feel like everyone is going to want to know what it is that I am doing that is so damned important. (LOL I am my own worst enemy). I don't want that, or maybe I do... anyway, I tend to jump on and offline  a great deal, because I am also doing so many other strange, funny and sometimes down right kinky things on this side of the screen. While at the same time trying to pay bills like everyone else. I want to have time for fun too. That is why I may get behind on my e-mail, and it is nothing personal, I assure you.  I just can't and won't let it consume or control my life.

Tempt Ya Later! ; )
