I think prioritizing human beings over art is of course the right answer, theoretically, but what does that mean in practice? Do you always prioritize the people and responsibilities in your life - and if you do, do you ever get any time to create? Or do you have to be "selfish" sometimes?
While a fair amount of writing can be done here and there whenever there's a moment, I find that I do have to prioritize it at times. I don't isolate myself in a shed, but maybe dinner is late or the place isn't as clean as it should be. There's always going to be a sacrifice somewhere.
