I’m an author, so I get to work from home every day, which I LOVE. (Wait, not strong enough…I LOOOOOVE it.) But I’d be really interested in any tricks you have on how to keep from procrastinating.

I found this blog by…procrastinating. Every time I have writer’s block? I’m back to check Google Reader to find out if anybody’s written a new post (and if not I’ll curse them for not writing, and go hunting for other blogs to read. I’m fickle that way.) I don’t have a looming deadline, my next book’s not due to the publisher until next January, so it’s just too easy to click from Word to Explorer…Any tips?

Thank you all for your comments! I hope you’ll find something you can use whether you’re currently working from home or hope to in the future.

I am trying my best to do better from home (right now I only earn a small bit of spending cash on the side)….gas prices are frightening and probably only going to get worse. I look forward to reading your tips and tricks!

I don’t work from home, but I work for myself in a small office surrounded by a fax machine, a computer and a phone. I have no co-workers, only a biz partner and the employees and I look forward to more posts about how to be more productive. Ha! OK, maybe how to read blogs and get work done.

I don’t know how you manage to get any work done. Between running to the laundry room, loading the dishwasher and watching Dr. Phil, I can barely get the billing done! If I actually left the house, I might focus better. But instead I try to do fifty things and don’t do any of them well. I look forward to your wisdom.

Hi Jess! I look forward to getting to compare notes with others who work from home. What a great company you work for – obviously they value your skills!

Hey Marylin! I’m seeing more and more people in Jess’s shoes – those working for companies that allow their staff to WFH – and in these days of gas prices through the roof, one thing that may be possible is negotiation of working from home in return for less salary!

My boyfriend and I both have jobs that allow us to work part of the time from home….which I love! But sometimes it’s way too easy to just read blogs…or go to the beach…or go down to the bar. I often end up frantically trying to finish up a project at midnight the night before it’s due! (And I really should be working right now, BTW. Oy.)

I love your other blog, and look forward to finding another way to procrastinate by reading your posts over here!

I would love to work at home… I just need to find a job that would let me do it. *sigh*

I recently became a WAH person also. I work for a medical software company who decided that they needed to downsize. Instead of getting rid of people, thank havens, the got rid of offices. They closed over 10 of them last year. Getting used to working from home has been a chore but it is finally starting to grow on me.
