Perhaps, if I live long enough, I'll learn that "days off" are very bad for my state of mind. I didn't stay away from the ms. altogether. I did corrections on chapters Six and Four and then sent the whole thing off to my agent, but none of that was real work. Days that I don't write are only wasted time that I could have written.
So, the whole day was a gray slog of trying not to work, but really having nothing to do that isn't work. At least I have the trip to Atlanta tomorrow.
