"If there was a door, I would open it. If there was a question, I would ask it." Such a great way to remind ourselves to push past the boundaries we so often confine ourselves within. The idea of writing something just for ourselves without considering audience or salability is so liberating. Thank you, Paolo, and thank you Rosemerry and Christie, for this episode!
This is just what I needed to hear today. Thanks for a wonderfully open discussion of burn out - and I love the idea of playful secret projects as a way back into the joy of writing.
