Being solitary is being alone well: being alone luxuriously immersed in doings of your own choice, aware of the fullness of your own presence rather than of the absence of others. Because solitude is an achievement.

Enjoy your solitude. As writers, we must learn to enjoy our own company. We must enjoy visiting our own minds, hearing what we have to say, and remembering that we are okay on our own. We can step away from the crowd and neither panic nor lose a sense of who we are. Practice enjoying the unfilled space and hearing the sounds within the silence.
