Hi! How are you? It’s been two weeks since I sent my last newsletter, and [that one](https://justincox.com/blog/2022/03/grief-and-customer-service/) was a bit of a downer. Today I’m back with an update on Eat Your Words changing lanes.

As the [sole manager](https://writingcooperative.com/saying-goodbye-to-one-of-our-editors-2d92a63aad07?ref=justincox.com) of The Writing Cooperative, I’ve been **busy* for the last few weeks. I merged business accounts, set up new automation procedures, and shut down a Google workspace (**saying goodbye to Google is strangely cathartic*). I’ve also been evaluating my time and process.

For the last year and a half, I’ve created **at least* three new pieces of content **every week*. On Tuesdays I send [This Week In Writing](https://www.getrevue.co/profile/writingcoop?ref=justincox.com), on Wednesdays I publish a [Write Now](https://writingcooperative.com/tagged/write-now?ref=justincox.com) interview, and on Fridays I send [Eat Your Words](https://justincox.com/#subscribe). All of this is **in addition* to my client work and other essays I publish. Frankly, it’s adding up.

I enjoy sending out weekly emails and interacting with people who respond — it’s one of my writing projects that consistently provides joy. However, I can no longer maintain two unique newsletters each week. It’s draining and starting to remove some of the fun. So, before [burnout](https://justincox.com/blog/2020/09/this-just-in-breathe-in-breathe-out-move-on/) sets in, Eat Your Words is changing lanes.

My weekly newsletter focus will be This Week In Writing for the foreseeable future. If you’re not a subscriber, it’s a weekly conversation about a particular writing topic — this week was [about libraries](https://writingcooperative.com/whens-the-last-time-you-visited-the-library-170066b16729?ref=justincox.com).

I don’t know if Eat Your Words will continue as a monthly, bi-weekly, or occasional newsletter — I’m going to take some time to rest my creativity and see what develops. I hope you’ll stick around and see what happens.
