Jason Howell asked Rita Robinson:

Hi RIta... This a question I'm asking of several writers, some friends, some strangers... Can you think of a risk you should be taking but are avoiding right now? In your writing life or otherwise? If so, what would you guess is holding you back? Why are you avoiding this risk? What's at stake? Thanks.

Rita Robinson Hi Jason. I just completed a book that's now in my agent's hands. After writing it, since it's about writing, I decided that I need some time to read, study, analyze and pay more attention to the world before starting another one. I don't feel as bold and brazen as I once did when it comes to putting words on paper. Writers thrive on risk and challenge. I want to continue taking risks and challenges, but to also do it intelligently and informed.
