Writing is a job, a process, and a LOT of effort. Try to balance the solitude and loneliness of the process with healthy doses of human interaction.

This Is Fine: It's All On Fire

I haven’t been a good friend of late, or a good brother or son. At best, a mediocre husband, and I’m sorry for all that.

In the last week, separate conversations with two close friends forced me into two uncomfortable conclusions.
