I’ve just returned from a fabulous few days in Black Mountain, NC. Great little town, cool shops (love that) and gorgeous mountains and weather. Somehow I always forget how much good a break can do for you. I’m one of those ’stick with it till it’s done’ types that will still pull all-nighters when necessary, but then I remember lessons from my past. Like, oh yeah, if I take a break and get a little rest and perspective, this project will move forward much more quickly. I don’t really believe in writers block, but I do believe a break can serve your work and creativity (not to mention your life) very well. Now back to work!
