‘It was in that room too that I learned not to think about anything that I was writing from the time I stopped writing until I started again the next day. That way my subconscious would be working on it and at the same time I would be listening to other people and noticing everything.’
-Ernest Hemingway, A Moveable Feast: The Restored Edition.
Great advice!

True… only, I’m usually working on at least 5 short stories at about the same time… so, when I wake the story lines are jumbled!! It gets a tad messy!!

I’m sitting here reading The Old Man and the Sea… specially because I’m writing a short story named The Old Man and the Fish! 😉

That’s excellent. Hemingway is my favorite author. Recently I finished reading The Old Man and the Sea to Gavin. (He’s going to be three months on December 1st.) I hope your writing goes well.
