Listen "Writing & Editing with ADHD"

Episode Synopsis

Today I’d like to talk about something more on the personal side.

About two years ago now, I (as I suspect is true for many of us as a result
of the pandemic) was diagnosed with ADHD. I’ve been learning a lot since
that time, and I have this feeling that I’m catching up now with perhaps
where I should have been all along. Of course, I guess that’s the case when
you find out a lot of your challenges have an actual, demonstrable root
cause that’s actually been with you your whole life. But even if it was a
mystery for a long time, it still had a profound impact on me, including
with my writing practice and work as an editor.
