Out of the Ordinary

254. How To Finish Well


Listen Later

In today's episode Lisa-Jo and Christie celebrate a four-year project that is finally complete. What's it like to stand at the finish line?

  • A conversation between friends on the creative process and completing a trilogy
  • Thanks to Lisa-Jo, Christie discovers that her book is like a Jane Austen heroine
  • Which of these three books with their distinct personalities should you read first?
  • How writing a trilogy teaches you contentment (and how that carries over to parenting and marriage)
  • Why some creative projects deplete us and some feel like play
  • Why Gardening Matters To Christie (and why it should matter to you too)
