What a lovely idea! I can relate to a lot of your gratitude points.

I'm grateful for connections and community on this network for sure - it's good to find people who share your ethos and also many who you can learn from!

I'm grateful that I have the time and energy to keep experimenting with my writing and figure out what's working for me - from academia to fiction to podcasting - it's wonderful to have freedom and to have that freedom instead of chasing something by trying to conform to a certain type of writing ideal or message.

I love this so much: "it's wonderful to have freedom and to have that freedom instead of chasing something by trying to conform to a certain type of writing ideal or message." I've been thinking a lot lately about what kind of writer I would be left to my own devices, i.e. not beholden to certain metrics. I imagine that experimentation is quite fun and I'm so glad to hear you're relishing the different formats and genres. How exciting!
