leave a responseI think I must be a maniac. I’ve started another book. I’ve barely recovered from the last one, and yet an idea cropped up. I’ve written about 1500 words, so not much at all, but enough to get the idea simmering.
It’s hard waiting to hear back on the book I just sent, but I’ll distract myself with a new one. I think. 
I just have this antsy, can’t sit still feeling. I can’t putter around the house, catch up on the laundry, breathe, go grocery shopping, or any of the things I’ve neglected. No, must start another story. I have delusions of grandeur that I’m like Nora’s soul sister or something, but yeah, right. *g*
Must calm down, must put on the wisdom cap and know I’ll be waiting a while. Must think straight, must decide what is best to write at the moment. Must not neglect San Francisco preparations in crazy hazy desire to write new story….

Hi Lynn!
I have to say it doesn’t take me long to get back to my writing, but I like to wait about a week. I do have a question though… does anyone else have trouble with their eyes and the comp? I never remember to take breaks *sigh* (or set the egg timer) but I’ve heard there are special glasses that are suppose to resist glare or something? Do you have any tips?
Hoping to keep my eyes in my head,
Nikki
Hi, Nikki! I don’t actually have any trouble with my eyes at the computer. My vision doc was completely surprised to discover I had 20/15 vision, in fact!
My hubby does this thing where he can make the screen magnified. That seems to help him, and he’s a computer professional. He only wears reading glasses.
OTOH, I’m using a Mac and it has a very rich saturation of color. Don’t know if that has anything to do with it (or for that matter if it’s just a good monitor and the equivalent would do for Windows).
Anybody else know anything? Have suggestions?
