How do you balance a family life with writing? I have a 3 year old daughter and my wife is constantly complaining about me wasting my life pretending I'm some kind of Hemingway. My output is very low, and after work when I try to write I just get a headache and all my ideas are gone. Recently, I went on a 2 week holiday without my family, and I churned out 11,000 words--more than it took me 6 months to write living at home. Is family just incompatible with producing novels? Is there a better way?

Your wife is a cunt. Dump her and get minimal visitation rights with the little shit.

Tell your wife to STFU and support your dreams. Tell her the sooner she backs off and let's you finish what you're doing the sooner you can be more present with the family. Your vacation anecdote should be adequate proof.

Absolutely Savage. Even your wife know that your writing is very simple and shallow.

Family isn't incompatible with producing novels, but adding that on-top of being a wageslave really drains all of the time that could be spent on studying and practicing.

The answer is obvious: get rid of the family.

Really? Do people actually do this? Why do you want a family then?

Sometimes you really need a few days away from your family to not go insane. Cabin fever will take the best of us. 2 weeks is a bit extreme, though. I'd definitely be very upset if I were his wife.
