I took half a year off last year (I did a lot of reading books but not writing) and I came back to it this year, so much more refreshed. Congratulations on the baby again, Natalie and I know you'll get back into writing. Just take small steps... :-)Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18076907708483883575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5774363178370829558.post-4335439669197499392012-05-26T07:22:37.925-07:002012-05-26T07:22:37.925-07:00Stretch not break - I like that.

They should motivate you to keep going, not make you feel like you'll never get there.<br /><br />Yeah, I'm hanging this above my desk AND on my refrigerator!
