Ep332: Going Through the Motions

Notes in the Margin

This week, Vicky and Joe talk mojo, the struggle to find people who can think, and breaking the rules. Finding yourself feeling a bit flat about your writing, your hobby, or life in general? That’s okay, it happens. But how do we yank ourselves out of it? Dunno — but maybe this podcast episode will help. In it you’ll find understanding, a random dog interlude, and a few strategies you could try to dig your mojo out of whatever hole it’s crawled into.

Key Takeaways:
