I don't mean this in a derogatory way, but you are insane.

I've written a couple for MK and SV and edited a few more conference books and a few more compilations of submitted chapters in an attempt to create a cogently thematic book, and I hated the world, everyone in it and myself. Never again.

Many people agree with you, but I like the process. I do sometimes take a month off with no writing, but not very often.
