A fellow doc student and I have 2 weekly appointments to write together. One at a local coffeehouse and another over Zoom. I have to act with thoughtfulness for them if I choose not to use that writing time. I am reinforced to write with them because we chat between pom sets. It has been very helpful as a person who is developing writing habits.

Hey Tricia - with empathy comes consistency which can work for you and your writing friends. Great reflection thanks for commenting.
That was such a validating discovery for me - I’m much more people oriented (though paradoxically also an introvert), so I need my tribe.
We all need people Margaret but in different ways. I'm a (proud) introvert too but I couldn't write anything without the support of others :)
