Episode 94: Reflection and a Story Named Crushed I Have No Idea What I’m Doing
-
- Personal Journals
Migraines, other health updates, generally reflecting on how functioning the last couple of weeks has been difficult on a lot of levels, and creativity are the main topics for this one. I also share a brand-new, never publicly shared story here for the first time. It’s a short story: “Crushed” – really nervous about sharing, but I tried to promise myself that I’d work on writing more and I recently wrote this and felt decent about it. Since this is an accountability space for me, I figured I’d share it.
The books I reference in this episode by title but not by author: Wool by Hugh Howey, Born to be Public by Greg Mania, and Spy x Family by Tatsuya Endo.
Crushed is an original short story written by me. Do not reproduce it without expressed permission. (This is not permission.)
As always, I swear and talk about a lot of heavy stuff; you've been warned.
If you want to share your sad (or happy or anything in between) life-happenings that feel invisible, especially because of the pandemic, you can email me at IDKPandemicPodcast@gmail.com.

I haven’t made time to participate in the Reedsy Prompts challenges lately, but I’m still including the link to that and my Twitter.
