If I feel just ho-hum about a piece I’m working on, it’s a sign that I should be working on something else. I’ll put it aside until a more opportune time. If a writing project is going to work, I need to feel a real hunger to tackle it, a hunger that will mobilize my best and greatest energies. Ho-hum energy leads to days when I write six lines, five of which I will ultimately delete.
