Chrissy! Thank you so much for the shout out. Your interview has over 390 video plays or something insane like that. It deserves it. I hope you got some new readers, and I hope you'll continue to get them in the future as I continue this project and listeners look at the backlogs. Cheers! It's really nice to have met you and I'll keep up with your stuff in the future.

Re: "Maybe I need to let my creative muscles rest while my actual muscles do all the work." A very creative friend of mine lives by 12 principles. One of them is "Rest is part of the work," which I keep taped on a piece of paper above my desk. I'm also reading "Sabbath: Finding Rest, Renewal, and Delight in Our Busy Lives" by Wayne Muller which has helped me a lot. He does refer to religious sabbath traditions, but those aren't the focus of the book.

I love the idea that rest is part of so many different philosophies - secular, creative, religious. Maybe everyone is on to something!

So relatable, too much, ever heard the song by Dan hill sometime when we touch and he sings about “ I’m just a writer trapped within my truth! That’s me! me at least reality may be subjective but there is also facts that cannot be ignored any longer! Peace ☮️
