A close-up of a fountain pen resting on the the page of a planner open to a calendar spread. The nib of the pen is dotted with ink splatters. The planner page has days outlined in muted blue and pink highlighter, and the tasks written in the squares are scrawled in messy handwriting.

Thinking about protecting my rest in this coming semester. I’m a sprinter, not a marathoner, and I like writing in concentrated, hyperfocused weeks. I do my best work that way, but I need a lot of recovery time afterwards.
