I'm a person who likes moving FORWARD, but today is a day for GOING BACKWARDS. Have you ever noticed that sometimes you have to go back in order to go forward? In my case, I'm returning to the beginning of the manuscript I'm working on -- I'm making adjustments and reading out loud and generally getting ready to MOVE FORWARD!  Though I know this is an important part of the process, I do miss actually moving forward. So this is the compromise I just made with myself: I'm going to move backwards till four o'clock (another couple of hours) and then, I'm going to let myself move forward! Funny to be writing about moving backward and forward when here I am, sitting at my desk, mostly not moving at all....
