A quarter of the way through the first edits of my next manuscript
seems an odd time to step away for a wee bit of a vacation, but I am generally
odd so…
Anyhow, I am off to the mountains for a week! A cabin deep in the woods
calls and my muse and I (along with various other familial assets) shall
answer.
I hope to get some good writing done up there, but really who am I
kidding? Holidaying with your brilliant five-year old nephew (and his familial
assets) is not conducive to literary output.
But…
Distance is important. A writer must step completely away from a
project to gain both perspective and insight. For me, this is a terribly
difficult thing to do, but for most it’s a little bit of a relief.
So, bottom line, my friends is this… Don’t be afraid to holiday. Your
book needs a break from you too.
Until next Sunday…
Chloe
