In my current writing class, we are reminded to not edit until we are finished with the manuscript. It is easier said than done.

I loved your term "pieces slide gently together."

I have so many notebooks half full. May I ask, do you write long hand first then type your story?

My brain works better that way, but I get frustrated at times because it takes longer. Thank you for giving me something different to think about today. 😊

Lately I’ve been using voice notes then I get a transcript with one of several tools. When I edit, I work off the transcript.

Sometimes I just sit down and write nan article. I like to mix it up.

I liked this episode. You spoke of writing, but it applies to us all. My favorite part was "Expand your horizons and recognize what you've learned." Much of the time, we are so busy doing a myriad of tasks that we forget to stop and take stock of our day, our week, and the lessons we learned. We need to take long walks more often.
