At the table in the room where I am writing I also draw, and in fact have been drawing more frequently than I’ve been writing this year, though I’ve just reached the end of a drawing project at this time, and now intend to continue writing only, instead of drawing and writing both, until I’ve finished this manuscript and am ready to do something else, or do nothing for a while — by which I mean neither draw nor write, though of course I’ll do other things.
