I don't know about you but I suspect we all have our off days. A bad review, a rough spot in your work-in-progress, a royalty check for 63 cents (yes, really). Then you have one of those moments when it all seems like an awful lot of effort for very little reward. Of course, next week there will be that great review, flash of inspiration and check for $700. But what do you do to tide you over until then?
