crisp

Tags: writing, fourth novel, revision, not writing, detachment

Didn't do a thing about writing, other than the wordpress blog, over the holidays. That made me feel saggy-baggy. I began this week to read over the revision suggestions made by Crown Publishing. It's interesting what a matter of weeks does to my sense of prickliness. I feel much cooler toward everything, not so touchy. I'm crossing my fingers that that coolness will guide me as I pick and choose my way through revision suggestions. And some part of me feels crisp again, like the best autumn day, now that I'm making work a part of the day again.

Happy New Year, if I didn't say that.
