Weekly Roundup: “Let’s Put That Away,” Writer App, and Quotes About Motherhood

Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.

Catherine's library find is from the category of "passive-aggressive board books that are really not for babies" (and the subcategory of "children's books by celebrities or celebrity-adjacent people"). It's Let's Put That Away: My First Book of Organizing by Clea Shearer and Joanna Teplin of The Home Edit, with (adorable!) illustrations from Hsinping Pan. Mentioned: Kiki & Jax: The Life-Changing Magic of Friendship by Marie Kondo.

Terri's random recommendation is an app for writers called, simply, Writer; it offers a stripped-down, old-school, black-and-green interface to help you write away distraction-free. Mentioned: Olivetti by Allie Millington.

In the archives, we checked in on an episode from 2017 in which we discussed our favorite quotes about motherhood. Mentioned: Overwhelmed mom quotes from This Modern Mess.

• Running Point S1 E8, "The Streak," on Wednesday, May 14
