Thank you for this, Annie. As a fellow writer and mother, I deeply resonate with your wrestlings. Lately, I feel God leading me into unhurriedness and a peace to do what I can in the unrushed time I am given--entrusting my five loaves and two fish to the One who multiplies.

"...another day for mastering the spaces in which we live." Love that line.

Also...FELLOWSHIP? Do tell.

“I’m trying to increase the margins of my life” 💖. You always find a way to convey EXACTLY what I’m feeling. How is it that we chose the exact same word for the year?!

I’m assuming you already know about Jenny Odell (How to do Nothing & Inhabiting the Negative Space). She has a new book coming out in March on embracing a new concept of time (and thus, “productivity”).

Loved seeing Ezra Klein here, I love reading him, thanks for the podcast link! And Brian Doyle was editor of the magazine at my alma mater 💖

What! You chose "space" too? Always on the same page hahah.

Yes, I was actually thinking a lot about Odell's How to Do Nothing while writing this. I didn't know about her new book, thanks for the heads up!
