Sometimes our projects get put on hold or abandoned entirely. Sometimes they're gone forever and other times we revisit them when the the time is right. We talk about why this happens and what circumstances need to be right for picking a project back up.
incidental subtopics broached: leaning into your hyperfocus, accountability buddy vs accountability sergeant, not being into the thing but being into someone else being into the thing, Joshua James Amberson (Broken Paper Airplane), Rob Drew (Unspooled), Will Wheaton (Still Just a Geek), the short-lived print version of The Pitchfork Review, Mortified, remixing your own ideas, We’ll Never Have Paris zine, Bitch Magazine, beta readers.
