Why Most of My Articles are Written on My iPhone Lately
Lately, the majority of the time that I’ve been able to carve out for writing has been during two main parts of my day:
- The subway ride TO work
- The subway ride home FROM work.
These are the times when most of my thoughts and ideas are festering the most. So, the only way that I’ve been able to get them out of my head is by drafting them on my iPhone.
About two months ago, I was let go off from my full-time job. I actually had already known it was coming because my company announced that they had been officially sold to another company just months prior.
Shortly after that announcement, my entire team was informed that our positions were being eliminated due to the sale.
For some people, it was a tough pill to swallow. Most of my co-workers jumped ship early. They took new jobs before they could experience the blow of unemployment.
For me, I embraced it with open arms because then, I’d have some time for myself — to decompress, to relax, to write, to figure out my next move.
It was honestly the best two months of my life. I could write whenever I wanted to and my schedule was an open book.
