When one is writing a novel there are sacrifices that must be made--other pastimes that must be put aside. It is easy to mourn the life missed by focusing on writing instead. But when confronted by what I might be missing, I answer, loosely paraphrasing the Buddha, "No, instead I will finish this novel, and make a million worlds rejoice." Okay--maybe it's time to take a break.
