The temperature and the humidity are both high.  Kids are home from school,  wrecking the house or fussing about being bored.  The grass needs to be mowed every other day, and the TV has nothing but re-runs and news, and re-runs of the news.

Is this the perfect time to be writing that novel?  Yes, if it’s a one-character story set on a silent glacier.  And yes, if you have the Sideways method and crew to urge you onward.  Onward!

Sideways students are sorting themselves out, swapping congratulations, hugs, and a bit of advice.  Log in and grab some iced tea and let us know how it’s going with you.
