"And what about me? How do I feel about operating in a regime of scarcity (temporary, I hope) after almost three years of entrepreneurial frenzy? Well it has its pleasures, rather like the pleasure (on the obsessive-compulsive side to be sure) of cleaning up your desk after a bout of intense and almost narcotic writing, or the pleasure of pruning a manuscript of self-indulgent length, or the pleasure of finally getting through that pile of mail and identifying the debts and obligations it brings even if you can't quite take care of them."
