S1E11. Writing Habits and Routines (Or, People For Whom Forward Motion Is A Challenge)

In this episode, Lani (@copper-dust) and Jo (@pebblysand) talk about writing routines and habits. They chat about when they write, for how long, what tools they use and what they wish they could change about their writing “bad” habits. They discuss the feasibility of writing day, whether or not they find it easier to work on multiple projects at the same time, and the struggles that sometimes exist trying to balance our social life, the 9-to-5 grind, and writing.

This week, we mention: 

• Merry Men and Check the Spindle by @copper-dust 
• the fault in faulty manufacturing, ce ne sont que des cailloux & castles by @pebblysand 
  
  

Your recommendations for this week are:

• Haven by Emma Donoghue
• Station Eleven by Emily St John Mandel - also the TV series is a great example of a superb adaptation
