Research vs. Time

I’ve got these ideas. Lots of them. Really. I’d love to write a steampunk story. A few actually. And I’ve got fantasy world ideas–okay, mostly snippets–up the wazoo. And there’s this pirate story that really, really wants to be written.

I’ve got this problem though. Time. I don’t have any. I would love to spend hours at the library resarching ships, food, politics, etc of the time period. I did that once when I was younger about medieval times and I now have a lot of knowledge swimming around in my head to make appropriate scenes feel real. I want to, I do. But when? What with the EDJ, the home life, and the current writing, not to mention an SO who would like a little attention now and then, I have no hours to spend in the library or online. Pesky sleep! Is it really necessary?

There’s no other choice. The EDJ has to go *nods sagely*
