Writers

Somedays I feel really good about my writing habit. Like I hit goals or finish pieces. 

Other days I feel good about being a good digital citizen and completing things like returning messages, doing outreach, or posting to social. 

I've noticed recently that I seldom have days where I do a good job at both of those things. It's generally one or the other. 

I'm not sure if I should try and find a balance, or just embrace the ping pong nature of the flow.

Yes, these are two distinct activities, and they likely use different parts of your brain.

It’s probably best to keep the activities separate. I’ve found that works well. Writing is better done in 4-6 hour chunks anyway.
