Now I am refreshed and ready to go again.<br /><br />I think writers need to remember how important it is to just <i>live</i> sometimes. If we don't fully experience the world every now and then, it's sure difficult to come up with compelling material for writing.Julie Hedlundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04477115458570906449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4206355073837906221.post-63077538616568906202011-08-08T19:46:10.817-07:002011-08-08T19:46:10.817-07:00These are all great tips.

The result is that I work seven days a week on writing, and somewhere between 65-75 hours a week between both jobs.<br /><br />Understandably, when I go on vacation I leave writing behind me. However, I do read and I listen to audio books. I don't consider that "work" as it's always been my favorite pastime, but you're right, Julie. It does keep my brain limber.<br /><br />Nancy, who's looking forward to three days at the beach without her novel.Nancy Kelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00209727822644631003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4206355073837906221.post-77819215880477658152011-08-02T12:56:47.904-07:002011-08-02T12:56:47.904-07:00I do love to people watch when I'm out and abo...I do love to people watch when I'm out and about!
