#145 – Free -Writing Session (RIP Kobe Bryant)
In this episode I share my December 2019 writing stats, my cumulative 2019 yearly writing stats & January 2020 writing stats. I also share a writing tip that I picked up along the way, I tell you about what I’ve been reading, I reflect on the untimely passing of Kobe Bryant and finally, I read and reflect on a couple of my free-writing pieces, dedicated to Kobe, which can be found here: http://www.spuntoday.com/freewriting/kobe8 & http://www.spuntoday.com/freewriting/kobe24
