 Taking a suggestion from Mastodon, I tried to start a new book, but I found a book that I worked on before, and looks almost complete. I can probably enhance that one rather than start fresh on a new book. It's something along the lines (maybe my mind was telling me subconsciously about it) and what do you know? I got a book to work on, nice.

 @02f0e8aa periods of absence can actually help. You may find that you have the energy -- and your mind has quietly been working without your knowing -- to go through it all, fix things, enhance things, cut things... in a word, REVISE, which is the secret to good writing. 

I wish you luck. Keep us posted on how you fare.
