Hi & happy Monday!

I want to share some “shower thoughts” — literally.

I noticed I get a lot of story ideas when I’m in the shower or driving, when I have nothing to do but a) what I’m doing and b) think.

Then I realized I sometimes feel guilty for “wasting” time when I’m doing that kind of thing, like driving to a coffee shop in the next town over to work or choosing to shower before I work.

But the thing is, those times are key as far as naturally brainstorming writing ideas or lines I really like.

This is to say that “wasted” time isn’t always wasted, so do what you need to do! (And for the record, if you do waste time sometimes, that’s okay, too! You’re not alone, and you’re human. We’re not meant to be productive 24/7 or anywhere close to that.) :)

Now, onto the writing jobs and pitch calls for paid subscribers!

(Free subscribers: Want to see more of that content or make sure it’s worth it before purchasing? Here’s an old example of what you’ll get each week. On average, I include about 20-30 paid opps including a variety of beats, years of experience, types of writing, etc.)
