Vacation

Hiking with llamas

Everybody, including writers, deserve vacations and I recently had the good fortune of experiencing one. My muse and I traveled to central Oregon and spent a week at Eagle Crest. An advantage of no longer teaching is that you can vacation during the more mellow travel times of the year: spring and fall. And mellow it was at “the Crest.” Hiking, biking, and viewing birds during the day as well as stars at night.

Of course, “mental vacations” are another matter for some writers, including me. So, during the week I proofread a middle-grade novel I am planning to submit. I also spent time jotting down ideas for other projects and planning marketing strategies for current books. It was a great time.
