Sometimes grief can freeze you up at the keyboard, but I think the subconscious is still working at it and when the time is right, it's time to write again. I'm glad you stuck with it and I can't wait to read the result.<br />MoAliasMohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02215864597874551595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-73465196355591761822010-07-14T16:58:42.010-04:002010-07-14T16:58:42.010-04:00Thanks to everyone who left comments.

When I was going through a stressful time, I started my first novel. The stress didn't help the effort, but it made me determined to finish it, which I did. I doubt if it will ever be published since it was my "practice" novel, but finishing that ms was an accomplishment I could control in a situation in which I had little control. Perhaps that is the reason people rely on work during stressful times.E. B. Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16746747050278597888noreply@blogger.com
