Writing is more than writing

I know I've blogged about this before yet I seem to need the reminders every so often.  I returned to work yesterday after ten days off.  They were busy and not quite as productive as I'd hoped ~ as it pertains to my writing. 

BUT as I visited with a friend this morning while walking I was reminded "Writing is more than writing!"  Although I didn't finish the book proposal in its entirety or revised a complete chapter - I did read five days worth of newspaper articles, reread articles online and other documents regarding Heidi's case and the events that followed.  I spent time talking with my parents about how the New Haven Fire Department was designed when it became the command center.  We talked about where we were and who called us.  SO...there wasn't an abundance of writing yet there was a lot of reading, researching, talking and healing.

Now to transfer the newly revisited information and conversations into the next chapter and a complete book proposal.

Talk to you tomorro
