"Work expands to fill the time allotted."
That's Parkinson's Law. So it stands to reason that if you didn't write a song this week, it's because you didn't allot any time to it.
Corollary:
"Work contracts to fit the time allotted."
Same result. If you don't set time aside for it, you're not going to do it. This shit ain't magic.

I wrote two songs this week, but it should have been three. Damn I hate that law.
