But then one day, I realized that I was ready to send the work out to Beta readers.<br /><br />My goals haven't felt very "major," though. They were goals like "work for three hours a week editing."<br /><br />And yes, we have to take time out for other things, like watching grandkids, doing housework, running errands, etc.<br /><br />It's good to enjoy our people!Laurel-Rain Snowhttp://laurelrainsnowswonderland.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6522027104230823424.post-75021043905795808252011-07-27T20:35:12.292-07:002011-07-27T20:35:12.292-07:00Good for you not writing and going to a Twins game...Good for you not writing and going to a Twins game.

Strangely, it is also easier to be creative when we are under pressure (at least for many that I know, myself included). Enjoy your time with family and be ready for the flood of creativity once your back.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
