That's very insightful, thank you Cynthia.

I can certainly relate to having the time & space - it must be tougher to compartmentalize when you have more going on!

Your point on writing fiction making you a better academic writer is interesting. I can see that makes sense albeit I feel my (relatively) recent academic writing has made my fiction 'tighter'. It works both ways, I think!

Thanks for taking the time to reply
