I managed to get my writing goals done for August. Perhaps not well done but done enough. Now I've got to decide if I plug on with the novel or take a break and do something else for a month. The novel is basically heavily outlined. A lot of detail and even some dialog written. Should I let it simmer in the back of my mind? I have a short I worked on last year that got about half way done before I switched to the novel. I would like to finish that. But will I forget (I do that a lot) my novel and have to relearn it all over again.

Dilemma.
