Re ideas: that Elizabeth Gilbert story in Big Magic about ideas coming into the world through one writer or the other has always worried me because I’ve been working on my novel for five years and I am not done. I’m hoping my story is patient for just a little longer.
Thank you for your generosity!! You describe well my own approach to ideas... when one comes to visit, greet it wholeheartedly and share cookies and crayons with it enthusiastically! 💙
Interesting essay about grabbing the moment. I had been on a good run which was interrupted at a super busy schedule at work last week. So I could feel "it" slipping away so I pushed myself to write this weekend. I'm still slammed at the office, but I think that will keep the mojo on life support until I get to the other side of my deadline this weekend.

So excited to buy a paperback! I’m really enjoying the ‘bookness’ of wild divinity 😀.
Nice work all around, Jason. This post, the Medium article and your new ‘Zine!
