Once upon a time, and somehow just yesterday, I hosted a season or two of another podcast. The theme was parenting, but through the lens of the “young witch” archetype in literature. And we did it all in a weekend, holed up in an AirBnB in Memphis, TN, with stacks of books all around us and the rain quietly falling outside.

Witches or no, that work was magical.

One of the stories we centered on came from Women Who Run with the Wolves, which I hadn’t read in full before that weekend. And then I still didn’t read it in full during it…or after…for literal years. Some books need to be digested slowly, and for me, this was one.

- The slowness of story as medicine

- The intention it requires

- How the book landed for me as I finish a big project

- How finishing a big writing project might land for you

- Parting words of wisdom for the slow work of writing
