Ep. 482: Word Count Accountability (& Chuck Dances!)

from Happier in Hollywood Hosted by The Onward Project

Liz and Sarah are using a new accountability method to power through the pages of their novel Bad Trip. Every day, they’re writing down their respective word counts in their planners, even if it’s zero, and then reporting the number to each other the following morning. And it’s working! In Take A Hike, they discuss the question — how much of your day do you actually enjoy? Then, in Hits & Bombs, Sarah gives Liz a hit for helping Sarah and Violet during a tough time, and Liz gives Chuck a Hit for going to a very-out-of-his-comfort-zone dance class. This week’s Hollywood Hack comes from a listener— try “location scouting” in your own neighborhood. Finally, Sarah recommends the TV show Ride or Die on Prime Video.
