I prefer to think of time spent away from my writing as time for my material to refresh itself, and perhaps to increase my tolerance for uncertainty. I admit to experiencing quite a bit of fear and doubt when too many days (weeks!) pass like this, but I have learned over the years that my own level of productivity isn't easily measured by the number of hours per day spent in active pursuit of words or sentences or pages. That being said, I often envy other writers who seem to have better strategies than my own for staying "on task."

Thank you for checking my review of your book. Our 'Couples Book Group' read it last winter, and then went tromping around Steinmetz's property line in the snow. My wife developed a program on Steinmetz for the local traveling Children's Museum. What was the genesis/inspiration for the Native American characters? They created such a wonderful juxtaposition of old culture and the new world of Steinmetz.
