I know what you mean. And I must write, everything depends on it.

Can I share a little something though ~K, I learned more doing NaNo than from all the books I had read while agonizing about just starting any thing at any point.

And I am also starting to limit the number of blogs about writing that I read as well.

I had the same addiction. When I first started writing (er reading about writing and dreaming I was actually doing it) I would read voraciously about the writing process. Then I began to notice that the information in these self-help books for fledgling (read struggling wannabe) writers like me was virtually the same, regurgitated stuff with a different byline. So, I started to write.

Now I have two faves that I have picked up over the course of my career that I read when I need a boost, though I question the reasoning behind perusing one of them. I think I do it because it is just so damn funny. It reminds me of MR's rantings and is quite contradictory to the rest of the writing advice out there. That's the one I really take to heart.

Congrats on finding the book that motivates you. It's a little like winning the lottery! Have fun with the editing~ Lex
