Smart Things

Jay Lake saying smart things about motivation.

Margo Lanagan at Justine Larbalestier's blog saying smart thing about allowing yourself time to not write. I'm just coming out a long (for me) window of that and have three books on deck that need to be written in the next 18 months. I think it will be easier for having had the down time.

Jim Hines saying smart things about the literary costs of the American health care system. i.e. there are an awful lot of good books not getting written because most writers need to have a second job if they want to have health care.

Michael Damian Thomas saying smart things about new writers and convention going. Parts one and two.
