Hi Friends,
Whoa -- it's been forever since I've written! I am deep into a book due out this spring: Introvert Power. My husband is guarding the door while I immerse myself. It is so amazing when you find that "sweet spot" of work where it is pure joy, and that is what this book is providing me. (Though yesterday was pretty pure hell--the tortured writing that drives us to drink, but that's been the rare exception. I came out of it with some bruises, but won the battle -- chapter complete and probably one of my best.) I need to be parting with you again shortly. Today I need a change of scenery and will move my office to one of my coffeehouse haunts.

Oh -- speaking of introversion, I would love to hear from those of you who would rather sort through trash than attend an office party. If any of the questions below inspire a great (or even mildly insightful) thought, I'd love to hear it! Email me at laurie@wakingdesire.com

What do you feel/experience in solitude?
What is your favorite time of day?
Where do you like to go to be alone?
what is your favorite solitary pastime?
What kind of environment would you live in if you could?
How do you prefer to interact with people?
How important is sleep to you?
Do you get down on yourself when you prefer to be alone? If so, what kinds of things do you say to yourself?
What do you like best about being an introvert?
What would you like extroverts to understand about you?

Catch up with you later. I'm diving in again...

Best, Laurie
