So...um... 3 years ago

How do you do this and hold down a 9-5 job? I’ve been reading Carpenter’s biography on Tolkien, and saw that he was usually tied up with his day job and being a father, and did most of his writing (and a lot of his talking about writing with his friends) late at night.

It’s likely we wouldn’t have works like Lord of the Rings without late night creativity. But how does one go about it without work or health or family/significant-other relationships or all suffering?
