Actually I want her to write more herself for she is insanely capable, but she doesn't. The subjects she writes about are very intense and I think that they wear her out. I can't read them all the way through myself, though we might work out some strategies or problems together. She has many other outlets.
There is never a problem with my books though. I will ask her something or have her read something and then we might have a brief discussion, and I accept her direction or not, and move on.
We do have our go-rounds sometimes, though not on writing. For example we are planning on hiking the Grand Canyon next vacation and I am getting ready, losing some weight (from this past Christmas vacation and before), getting my knees back in shape and I sometimes might try to be helpful with her preparation. For example, last night, I said "I am going to hit the treadmill for a while now," ~hint, hint.~
Reaction - [Dead VERY Frosty Silence! - like I might be pushing a bit.] On some subjects, she doesn't take prompting very well.
