First Draft Club

Prompt for the week: What are you working on right now? How can people be helpful to you? Let us know!

(Prompts are optional – write about whatever you want! Remember to share your writing in /firstdraft by Sunday!)

After several months of explicitly seeking something to work on, I am “working on” simply nurturing my curiosity.

I now have a contract job that is not too demanding, and while I know it won’t be long-term sustainable, what I really need right now is not “the next thing” but space for my soul to breathe and wander.

I am excited to spend this holiday season reading and exploring. When something starts to feel like work more than play, I’ll gently step back.

"space for my soul to breath and wander" is sort of how I found myself joining farcaster. I stopped applying to jobs, decided to just do something I wanted to, and made myself promise to start something and commit

love the intention, appreciate that you're sharing it with us, no matter what they are - though this is a good one!

btw this type of response is pushing me toward making /firstdraft about “sharing”, not “writing”

how does that feel to you? I’m thinking it’s more accessible, lower pressure, more communal

I love it, writing is fundamentally an act of communication

you can define it more generally and I think that "first draft" will continue to meaningfully communicate that this is about process, not product
