How are we all doing when it comes to the ever-evolving world situation? We chat about our productivity, whether or not we feel we should be speaking into these situations, and how we are handling our inputs versus outputs. In the end, we all agree to just keep writing!

What we talked about:

The problem with “if only” and introversion, and our current situation. (0:42)

How has our productivity been effected? (3:15)

The inward journey. (8:47)

Should we be saying something? (11:05)

Are we leaning away from non-fiction? (18:30)
