Except where the pressure helps

Transcript

Hi, this is John-Paul, and this is a voice note for anyone thinking about joining the Micro-Memoir course.

Someone who has signed up wrote to me this morning, and she said she can’t make the Zoom call on Thursday night, and apologised, and said, “Would there be a recording?”

And I said, “Please don’t apologise. I know everyone on the course has a lot to juggle, and I don’t want to add any pressure except where the pressure helps.”

And I thought I’d explain the thing about the Zoom calls. They’re not lectures that you have to sit through. The main point is to deal with whatever people are struggling with at that stage of the course.

So if you can’t be there, just send me a message beforehand with whatever you’d like me to talk about, and I’ll make my response available afterwards. It may not be a Zoom recording. It may be something like this, a voice note. Either way, you won’t miss out just because you had something else on.

If you’re wondering whether the course could fit around your life, that’s the answer. It is intended and designed to do that.

The details are on my website. Thank you for listening.
