Can't take a break now; am prepping for the 3 Day contest, which your reminder about has inspired me to enter for the first time. Thinking it's time I tried a little fiction again after years of non-fiction. Not that I can write, of course, but I am musing about the plot and characters.

What's with the "not that I can write"...?? a typo :)

Breaks are good when they're chosen. And when you need.

I am glad to hear you're wading into the 3 Day--and look forward to hearing about it!

I meant not that I can start writing now, because I have to wait till the contest begins.

Right... outlining and notes are acceptable, though. Scribbles of musings.

I like this idea of setting a date to return to writing. I’m in the midst of an ebb with my writing now. The flow has come and gone before, but knowing that I have a set day to check back in with myself and return would make the ebb less worrisome.

Yes! The "honouring" piece. I'd be curious to know how it goes...
