Hello!

I’ve had a blank newsletter open for days now, intending to fill it with my April “month in review.” But for some reason, I kept avoiding it… and that never happens with the newsletter. (I reserve my toxic writing tendencies exclusively for my WIP novel.)

Maybe it’s because we just did a big “life catch up” episode of the podcast, so everything I have to tell you feels redundant. Or maybe it’s because I don’t want to admit to myself that my book writing month was far less productive than planned (it’s OK, I still feel chill about this draft and my deadline.)

So, we’re pivoting. Instead, I want to show you the most useful note in my notes app.

We talked about this a bit on the notes app episode of the podcast last year, but since then I’ve evolved and perfected my process. Plus, I think it’s something that’s more visual then auditory. If you’re a fellow organizational nerd, get ready for some real Virgo porn1. And if you’re more lax, let me either blow your mind or bore you to tears.

Introducing… the monthly dump note.
