Interview
4 questions› What is your favorite item in your workspace?
My Xebec. It's portable and triples my screen size.
› How do you spark creativity?
I've never sparked creativity, it sparks me. Creativity usually hits when I'm in the gym, or on the subway, or at a dive bar at 1 AM. When it does hit, I text myself a few blurbs to review later when I'm by my computer.
› How do you manage work-life balance?
The best way to manage work-life balance is work on stuff that you don't feel the need to balance.
› What does your typical writing process look like?
I sit down, write for 15 minutes, hop on Twitter to look for a tweet that I want to reference, procrastinate on Twitter for 20 minutes, throw my phone on my bed, close Twitter, grind on the newsletter some more.
