Y'all, do not sleep on this merch!!! Every time I wear my yellow crewneck sweatshirt from last year, I get compliments and questions. It's a great conversation starter, and it's comfortable, too!

Thank you so much for inviting me to take part Jami. I'm so glad we met on that fateful day in Galway! And I want to take you for all your hard work on this and all you do for other writers. Hope to see you in person before too long. x

“Time, distractedness and the internet are the enemy. Ideas are not.” What a delightful way to start my day after journaling my regret of being 700 words short yesterday & wondering when I would find time to make up 300 words today. The prospect of tucking snippets into the here & now gives me hope that I’ll be able to finish my day accomplished! 🤞🫶

“Lean into the pale pink fizz of 4pm...” plug in the hour and enjoy the fizz when the story comes together. This is advice I am now telling myself. Thank you so much. 😘

Oh, how I relate to her discussion of the "green hour," just as she says that moment that is captured at the very end of a futile-feeling day when something clicks at last. Often just when all the other demands crowd in. And to not give up when the rest of the time is a desert. The "clock of creativity" is such a provocative concept, something I'll keep mulling over.
