I resonate with the first half of this post.

The creative outlet that keeps me as sane as possible? Gardening & also writing. As crazy old-person that the former sounds, I get solitude (bliss!) & fresh air while crafting an aesthetic space that also provides food. Writing... well writing is thinking & I can’t stop thinking. Which is honestly a bit maddening.

Jessica first let me thank you for taking the time to comment. And then let me apologize for the delay. Without boring anyone with the details, let me just say that life has a mind of its own. As to your comment, I am trying to develop a gardening habit of my own, actually! Good to hear I'm not alone.

Great work, Danny. Look forward to reading the shorts. Mine’s a combination of kung fu and dark rum. But as I’ve aged I no longer mix them.

Thanks so much Adrian. And again, let me apologize for the terribly rude delay in responding. You are very kind.

The podcast I co-create with my fellow writer (and sister) is a big outlet for me! (Reframeables is its name 🎙️)

Thanks Stephen. I'm very much appreciative of the kind words. I had a blast doing that, but had to make some decisions about where to direct my energies.
