It's funny -- the worse the reports of slowdown get, the more motivated I am to keep writing so I can be ready when the bust turns into a boom.
It's also a perfect time to self-produce something, which is what I'm working on at the moment. I encourage everyone to do the same in this downtime -- it's great for honing your skills and staying positive at the same time!
