Paul Downs asked Heidi Pitlor:

How long do you give yourself to rest between projects?

Heidi Pitlor Thanks for the question. I usually begin a novel just before my last one is published (although I've only published two). I inevitably put the new one down while promoting the previous one, and then bumble my way back toward the new one about a month after I'm done with promotion. It's usually a process of starting and stopping-- as a working mom, it's tough for me to plan much. I grabs scraps of time when I can. Thanks again!
