Ahh, thank you! and yes, I'm all for hearing about alternative methods too. The last few years, I'm finding myself looping out on long trajectories into other areas, other fandoms or genres or hobbies or Wikipedia research topics that may or may not have a direct bearing. Eventually I am returning with insights from it, working furiously on the Books for awhile, and then shooting out like Pluto again. Learning how to make jewelry and the types of different natural gemstones is not necessarily of direct use for many stories, for instance, but it's interesting in its own right.
