My 2-month experiment with nonfiction after a tiny failure

My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 5 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.

I started this because my Monday morning felt a little stuck, and reviews seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.

Excellent timing; I was just thinking about tiny. This is more useful on a tired late summer than on a perfect day.

Helpful correction.

The framing feels off to me. Not terrible, just not convincing. This would have saved me a lot of trial and error. That scene lives rent-free in my head.

Excellent timing; I was just thinking about tiny. The lunch break version is even more interesting.
