119: The Danger of the Twin Scarcities [book excerpt]


Listen Later

Have you ever struggled to reconcile the realities of needing both time and money, and never feeling like you have enough of it? The Twin Scarcities refer to the scarcities of time and money. As academics, the idea of these things being scarce has been ingrained in us from the start of our careers and continues to stay with us as we navigate both our working and personal worlds.

In episode 119 of the podcast, listen as I read an excerpt from chapter 2 of my new book coming out, Making Time to Write. The chapter's title is "The Danger of the Twin Scarcities" and I dive into the nuances of the aspects of time and money and how they play a large role in how and why we work and write the way we do. I hope you'll gain some insight into your own writing life and will take the time to dissect your own relationship with these twin scarcities as it relates to how you make time to write.
