I can always tell when I’ve rested enough. Ideas start coming to me fast and furious about books I need to write. The last one came fully fledged in a dream, and I’m really excited about it, but I can’t write it until I finish the sequel to Guide.

Typically I don’t try to multitask (and write two books at once), but this other idea is really working on me. I think I might hurt myself, though, if I try to do them both at the same time. My brain just doesn’t shift gears like that, which is too bad. I’m dying to get started on this new idea.

How about you guys? Do you work on one project at a time or do you jump around to whatever takes your fancy at the moment? This doesn’t have to apply to writing. I’m asking about any hobby you may have, or heck, even your dayjob. Are y’all champion multitaskers? And if so, maybe you can teach me how.

The winner from last week’s contest is… Anastasia! Email me, and tell me what kind of story you want.

PS - Don’t forget to pick up Boundless when it comes out on September 3. My good friend Dionne Galace is running a contest this week with a great prize.
