Today, I drove down to our local organic farm and picked up our first CSA of the season. For those who don’t know, CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture. You buy a “share” of a farm’s produce. I can report that the yummy food from our CSA is one of the best things about summer. Tonight, I’m lobbying for a salad made from some fine organically-grown leafies to accompany dinner.
When you are a member of a CSA, you also learn where your food comes from and how much work it is to produce. It gives you a new appreciation for how dedicated farmers have to be to bring food to your table. They make an amazing commitment to their work.
Book authors also need to have commitment. You have to commit to a book, even when the going gets tough.
