Great point, Frank! I heard earlier this year "writing is a marathon not a sprint." It sounded so obvious and yet so powerful. I'd never thought of it that way. I wrote it on a Post-It note and left it on my computer monitor. Some days I don't feel like writing but I see that sticky note and it makes me think - some days I just need to do a little, even just 100 words or a few ideas jotted on a note card toward my story and it is something.
As for book recommendations, I recently read Red Harvest by Dashiell Hammett which I enjoyed a lot.
