Scout, I'm a diver too. But finishing projects is hard whoever you are. There are all the problems inside of our head that stop us, but there are also problems that the world throws out at us. Anyway, I do tend to hang on to projects and plug along. At the end of the day, we're all people.

Speaking of scanners, scanners love new things. (I hate learning how to use upgrades on the Internet.) But, I have to admit, I don't learn many new things these days. The book I'm working on now takes place in Canada in the Yukon, and I did some research on the Klondike Gold Rush, and on the First Nations tribes of the Yukon, and I loved it. I used to love learning things. It makes me think that I should spend some of my "dwell" time (Goofing off time?) just surfing the net and learning about things.

Good luck.
