A break really can help calm the nerves and give a person a better perspective. Think I’ll go out for a walk right now …

Writing is good to get you thru life situations, a definite vacation in which you can center on characters/plot, etc. When I’m really panicked about anything, including deadlines, I usually leave the whole thing and get out and drive somewhere. By the time I come home, I’m usually balanced out and have found a few solutions.

There is nothing like reading a good book that takes you away from your worries. For me, writing is like that, too.

It puts my focus on someone else’s troubles rather than mine.
