POWERHOUSE PRODUCTIVITY.

Good morning, readers. Today is a special edition of Mosaic—we’re tossing out the usual format, and instead, focusing on the topics of productivity and managing your creative business. Below, you’ll find a list of our favorite resources for a wide variety of business needs; file management tips, free Notion templates, analog tools for task keeping, recommended reading, and even a kitchen timer (read why below).

We hope you enjoy this diversion from our usual format. If you did, drop us a line and let us know! We’ll be back with regularly scheduled programming next week.

Until then—dive in, get lost, and enjoy.
