Sometimes You Can't Go with the Flow: Hacking Writing Energies in Episode 304 with Jess and KJ
its.verdex
Description
Here’s the deal: Jess and I (KJ here) have been rolling with different energies lately. She’s letting the spirit move her. Being inspired. Putting time into other creative projects and inviting that to feed her soul. I’m stepping over other projects, telling the spirit I’m not home right now and keeping the spotlight in one place.<br/><br/>In this episode, we talk about when you can—and can’t—go with the flow. How we handle it when other ideas beckon, but a deadline demands our attention. What we do between projects and why. And why KJ puts a meal plan on the fridge every week, while Jess asks “what do we feel like eating?”—but that does NOT mean Jess can’t make a plan and stick to it, or that KJ never follows the muse. (Although, re: dinner: I don’t CARE what you feel like eating. This is what we’re having.)<br/><br/>As always, if you’ve got a pressing writerly question you’d like us to answer or that you might be willing to work through on the show, email us: <a href="mailto:amwriting@substack.com">amwriting@substack.com</a>. <br/><br/>Links from the Pod:<br/><br/><a href="https://www.jessicalahey.com/comingofageinthemiddle/2015/3/24/special-care-instructions">Special Care Instructions blog post</a><br/><br/><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/B1jRQ6qAn3b/">Jess’ video on Instagram</a><br/><br/><a href="https://enophone.com/">KJ’s dumb headphones</a><br/><br/><a href="https://asoftmurmur.com/">A Soft Murmur web app</a> <br/><br/><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8740976/">Inventing Anna</a><br/><br/><a href="https://bookshop.org/a/1183/9781548271107">2k to 10k: Writing Faster, Writing Better, and Writing More of What You Love</a> by Rachel Aaron<br/><br/><a href="https://bookshop.org/a/1183/9781733251129">Blueprint for a Book</a> by Jennie Nash<br/><br/><a href="https://bookshop.org/a/1183/9780399579745">Save the Cat!
