If it weren’t for the last minute, I’d never get anything done!
Me neither…though I never seem to stop in between!
Yep. This is me all the time.😕
I’m thinking it’s every writer I know, actually…
It’s good to know I’m not alone!
I’m not sure anybody does it any other way!
Yep… perfect fit 🙂
I know. I should have just written GUILTY across the top.
Well.. er.. I don’t want to be called”guilty” actually.. I mean, I do my best work like that, close to the deadline, the last minute etc 🙂 So I don’t really feel guilty at all… although, people tell me “think about how much better you could have done if you had planned it well and followed the time-table” …
“Planned?” That’s crazy talk
😀
Yup, that’s me! As Doug Adams said, “I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.”
Right! I love that line!
I would answer at length about how this is a completely ridiculous accusation, but I don’t have time, because I blew off this project all week long and now I have to work on it this weekend because it’s due on MONDAY, OH NO!
et tu, Joy? Now my world is truly destroyed.
Me, indeed. I may be the worst procrastinator in the world. I don’t know, though. I keep meaning to submit my entry to the international contest but missing the deadline.
Ha! That’s awesome.
I procrastinate doing one project by working on another that’s under a deadline. Does that count?
I think that counts double, actually.

Well?
Thank you!
Welcome Dan 👍😃
I can so relate to this! 😂
Nooo! All my heroes are supposed to deny this!
You’re setting such a bad example for me.
*blushes*
I’m sorry to say it’s true… If there was such a thing as a professional procrastinator, I would be it! 😳
PROFESSIONAL procrastinator. I like it!
Has a ring to it, doesn’t it? 😉
Have a great weekend, Dan!
You caught me. Ugh.That panic button stimulates quality though, but.sometime not. o_O
Seems like I caught everybody. Who knew?
Indeed. Who knew? 😛
With more hair and jewelry, yes.
You mean there are people that plan?? And get their writing and stuff done early?? Wow. 😉
I plan. I write. But for some reason it still requires the last minute.
Not so much a procrastinator but more like paralyzed with too much on the plate. So, a picture of someone with a stack of stuff on the plate. Aaaaaah!
That IS kinda scary.
What’s a deadline?
Exactly.
Nope, not like me at all. I don’t wait until the last minute for anything. Last day, sure. But I can’t write anything in a minute. Well, other than this comment. But, there always has to be an exception, doesn’t there?
No. I’m very organized and like to get things done in a timely fashion. I hate being pressed for time. @v@ <3
