This is exactly how I feel on a daily basis. Between writing new fiction, coming up with ideas for Medium and trying to read as much as I can I understand your point.

BTW I started on the 1000 Day MFA taking your suggestion of reading a short story, a poem and an essay daily, reading a craft book and a novel monthly on top of all of the above.

You are my inspiration and I read your columns every day to fuel my fire and not give up.

Thank you for your words of wisdom.
