I'm Back on The Merry-Go-Round

So today, I'm over at Writer Unboxed, chatting about the endless cycle of the published author. Right now, I'm three and a half months out from the publication of The One That I Want - eeek! - and the nerves, anxiety and existential debate (Do I write for myself? Do I write for my readers? Does it really matter?) has begun all over again. You'd think that after a few times on this ride, I'd be better prepared (psychologically, that is), and in some ways, I am, and in some ways, it's as fresh as the very first time. (Resisting urge to include That's What She Said joke.)

Anyhoo, check it out and if you've ever felt the same way, please weigh in!
