One of the kindest things you can do for yourself as an artist is Stop Forcing It. Seriously. Take a day and come back. If you twist your ankle on a run, would you keep putting pressure on it just to finish the race? Why would you do the same thing to a piece of art? Don't run on an injury.

Great advice. My novel got written because I had a three on/three off rhythm. Occasionally I worked more, when I was excited to. But the progress was only quick when I respected my mind!
