In the first episode, Julia F. Green and Ralph Walker discuss their differing approaches to setting resolutions and goals, with Ralph touting the beauty of process-oriented goals and Julia admitting her aversion to traditional goal-setting. They explore the importance of rest, reset, and change, and the cultural forces that work for and against us in those realms. The conversation also examines the importance of a creative community and how public declaration of goals garners support, builds motivation, and encourages others to do the same, fostering a sense of camaraderie within the creative community and dispelling the myth of loneliness in creative pursuits.

Writing in the Dark is co-hosted by Julia F. Green (Substack, website) and Ralph Walker (Twitter, website) and produced by Aaron Fyler.
