Once again, this is an astute perspective on long-term work and a poetic way to give yourself grace without letting you all the way off the hook. My kind of advice, in other words.
Thank you for your astute feedback, Alee—especially as someone whose creative tenacity I greatly admire. Giving grace and being on the hook feel like important cousins in meaningful work, and I love how you articulated that.
Every article in the ER is worth reading and re-reading, so thanks for linking back to this one today. Bird By Bird is exactly what I need to hear today. Also, it reminds me to keep believing that all this loony flapping of mind will eventually result in a bit of soaring. Thanks!
Oh, I'm so happy to hear it. Just like there are no butterflies without wings beating out of the cocoon, there's no soaring without some good loony flapping!
