When you’ve been telling yourself a story for so long, what happens when it begins to change?
Stories that keep us stuck
All observations
Keeping the sacred fire burning
Why do we all bother working in industries like care, teaching, or the arts when the pay is so low and the respect so little?
Paralysed by scarcity
Once you realise that there are more projects in your brain than you have time in your life to make, how do you choose?
Substance in style
Can a style be objectively bad and therefore something that can be corrected?
Some days are for numbers
Being tired isn’t failure, it’s just an opportunity to do things a little differently than usual.
A fig in winter
What if figs in winter weren’t a fiction, but a reality?
No matter what
Imagine committing to something no matter what. It’s easy to say you are until, of course, the things that truly matter come to the fore.
Starting small
If you can’t write a 3-page graphic story, how on earth will you write a 300-page, 3-book series?
If no one saw it, would I still make it?
If the answer to this question is yes, I know I’m on to something.
Creating space for risks
If I begin with an audience in mind, do I really push myself to produce what I think is exceptional? Or am I just looking to please?
