As an author/illustrator just getting going on my career, it's always helpful to see what works for another artist. Of course, I wish I was as disciplined. I remember reading some time back about research on happiness that revealed that though most of us strive for a life of endless freedom, those of us who, either by choice or necessity, give up some of that freedom for a more regimented schedule fair far better. A hard thing to practice, especially with a 2 year old in tow these days! Aaron Hi Lydie
