Writers wait a lot. We wait for good news and sometimes—oh, lovely sometimes—we get it. Other times, not so much. Here are some of the things I do to distract myself from waiting.

  • Write something new.
  • Walk with the doggies.
  • Eat chocolate.
  • Do the Sunday NYT crossword puzzle.
  • Do housework (of which there is a never-ending supply).
  • Read (as there is likewise a bottomless to-be-read pile).
  • Write some more of the new thing.
  • Sleep.

I suppose now I can add blogging to the list. It could certainly replace housework.
