“I get distracted very easily for a lot of other things and then give up, but writing is one of the first things that I really hung on to, even if I didn't want to do it.

When I am tired, done with all my other random iPhone games and having absolutely nothing to do, I go for The New York Times but not for the news. Instead, for the plethora of games that catch my attention, from Connections to Wordle to the Mini Crossword.
