AJ likens it to a multilane highway – sometimes you’re zooming in the fast lane, other times you downshift to focus on other aspects. For Mike, he prefers to be all in, heh, on the writing, then put everything into the next phase of a book’s life. And of course, their admiration for Steven Pressfield’s process of managing multiple projects is the defining “how do you do it?” for the episode. You’ll have to listen to find out!
