As a Mets fan and fellow writer, this one resonates. I have a piece coming out tomorrow about how to channel time and attention more productively. We squander a great deal of creative energy on doomscrolling and airing grievances. This applies just as equally to the publishing space. You can, as a writer, literally take yourself out of the game.
Glad to hear that, Joshua! And I'm looking forward to reading that piece. I totally agree with you and have been considering writing something of my own about that wasted energy, as you say. Thanks for writing in
Thanks for a beautiful reminder, Andrew (especially for a fellow Met fan:-). So relevant to current goals of my creative life. There are ups and downs. You just keep doing.
Certainly easier said than done, which is why the reminder was particularly striking for me that day on the field. Glad to hear this resonated, thanks for reading!
This is great, Andrew. Needed to read it too. And know all too much about little kids this age and what trying to take them anywhere is like. Good stuff.

Glad it resonated, Jordan! LGM, I hope we can get one of those playoff spots
Me too! Haven't gone to CitiField for several years believe it or not, but going tonight against Red Sox!
Great time to go! They're actually good this year, and especially right now. I'd kill to go to a game and see what the energy is like these days.
Such a great game last night! Makes me wanna go back a couple of times this month.
Thanks for the inspiration this morning. Detaching from outcome and believing in process is so vital, yet easier in theory than practice.

Glad it hit you at the right time, Cat. Thanks for reading it, and god speed!
Needed some inspiration this morning, and I always look forward to reading yours. Thanks, Andrew!
Glad this landed for you right on time, Yvette! Thank you for reading, and I hope you and your family are well
My only wish is that he slumped against the Yanks 😂
He's become certified clutch this year. Been a beautiful thing to watch. I'm very glad he's my short stop
