   LOLOLOLOL! SO. TRUE!

   But you know, I don’t mind never being on vacation. For me, it’s less about turning my writing brain off, and more about turning my internet off. Also my internal editor/doubter. THAT’s how I really relax (when I can manage it).

   Oh, I love this! And it’s SO true. Trying to take a break since I *just* finished my YA novel, I am spending every waking moment in my head creating the NEXT one!!

   :D This is great. Wonderful timing too, as I’m about to leave for vacation. I think like that a lot, but hopefully I’ll be able to shut out the inner voice enough to relax and have fun.

    LOL This is hilarious. Everywhere I go, I’m always thinking about stories, new blog posts, etc. Writers are never on vacation! haha

    That’s funny. Just went on vacation and I wished I had my laptop more than once.

    Writers may take vacations, but I don’t their minds ever truly stop writing. (Hugs)Indigo

    I know the feeling! I would love to trade my desk for a few minutes at the beach.

    Hilarious!

    Then there’s people like me who don’t do beaches, so we find a cafe in a town we don’t live in and write whilst sipping tea and munching thoughtfully on some local treat.

    “Huh? Fun? This *is* fun, what do you mean?”

    […] This is totally what I meant! Imagine the bikini-clad writer lying on the towel wearing hiking boots and a baseball cap and you’ll get a good idea of my affliction. […]

    Sheesh. Can’t you see that I’m trying to RELAX?!

    LOL Oh my word! It’s so true! Writers can never stop thinking about writing even on vacation. Even I cannot stop.

    Great one, Debbie! I feel like I haven’t had a vacation since I started to write. I might look lazy some times, but mind is a hamster on a wheel…
