| 1/24/25 | E161. What Taking on a Second Creative Practice Has Taught Me (+ Some Thoughts on Disruption) | I recently added a second creative practice to my roster of creative activities: watercolor painting. While I definitely felt ready for this big step, it has nonetheless served as a disruption in my life and to my understanding of the role of creativity in my life. In this episode I contemplate the value of disruption and how both planned and unplanned disturbances to our status quo can help us grow creatively and develop a deeper understanding of our work. | 26m 35s | ||||||
| 1/10/25 | E160. Learning to Use Conceptual Tools as an Intuitive Creative: Is It Possible? | Creatives and artists can be roughly divided into two types: intuitive and conceptual. Many do successfully combine both styles, but I have never been able to. I am a strongly intuitive writer and have historically failed at incorporating conceptual tools, like outlining and plotting, into my practice. As part of my journey toward being a published author, though, I've been forced to consider using conceptual tools to streamline my writing process. In this episode I tell you how it's going an... | 34m 52s | ||||||
| 12/27/24 | E159. What Role Do Artists Play in Society? It May Not Be What You Think | As the wheel of history lurches forward I've been thinking about what role I play in society as an artist. What do I contribute? How can I make a positive difference? Typically this kind of discussion focuses on the artist's art, but I've taken a different view. I want to know what role artists themselves play, separate from their art. In this episode I contemplate this question and offer some thoughts. Hewes House | 26m 21s | ||||||
| 11/30/24 | E158. Interview Episode! What Health Looks Like Through the Lens of Creative Practice | In a twist on a classic interview episode, in this one friend of the pod Ann Wainscott returns to interview someone herself! Links from this episode: Switched on Pop's Madonna episode No.1, No.2, and No.3 Daniel Mason's novel North Woods | 1h 01m 56s | ||||||
| 11/15/24 | E157. Finding Psychological Safety in a Tumultuous World as a Sensitive Creative | When you are a highly sensitive gentle soul, the chaos and cruelty of the world can feel unbearable at times. How are we to protect ourselves while still engaging? In this episode I discuss this in light of my own thoughts on the recent US election results.

| 11/1/24 | E156. How I Learned to Take Myself Less Seriously...and More Seriously | Have you ever been told you take yourself too seriously? I heard this all the time growing up. And it was both right...and wrong. In this episode I discuss how I held myself back from reaching for my creative dreams both by taking myself too seriously and not seriously enough. Sound confusing? Well, give it a listen! Here is the Instagram reel that sparked this episode. | 25m 54s | ||||||
| 10/18/24 | E155. Why You Really Really REALLY Shouldn't Listen to Advice (*With Some Exceptions) | I wasted years of my life following other people's advice about how I should be writing novels and developing my creative practice, and it mostly failed me. So finally I decided to chuck it all out the window, go against the grain, and listen to myself. In this episode I discuss why we mostly shouldn't listen to anyone else and instead expend time and energy figuring out what works for US individually. But we also shouldn't dismiss advice and expertise wholesale! So I balance my rebellious FU... | 49m 49s | ||||||
| 10/4/24 | E154. Does Structure Constrain or Free Us? | I am using my current project, novel #2, to master plot, my weakest area as a writer. In the past, I've been ambivalent and even felt antipathy toward applying commercial and Western-style plot structures to my novels, because I felt they constrained my art. So what's changed? In this episode I discuss my evolving views on structure in life and art, and why I'm now leaning into the concept that structure can free us...if we do it right. For some background on my thoughts on plot, and particu... | 30m 51s | ||||||
| 9/20/24 | E153. Preliminary Thoughts on Being a Neurodivergent Creative | In this episode I discuss my recent diagnosis of being neurodivergent, including why I pursued a formal diagnosis, what it entails, and its relationship to creativity and my art. | 33m 48s | ||||||
| 9/6/24 | E152. Are the Things We Suck At Actually Special Talents in Disguise? | With novel #1 winding its way toward publication (hopefully), I have officially begun work on novel #2...and I've realized I will have to approach writing it in an entirely different way. Not only that, I'm going to have to use a technique I have utterly failed at in the past: preplanning the plot. Simply put, I suck at plot. It was the last thing to fall into place in novel #1. In this episode I contemplate why the things we suck at could actually be special talents in disguise, and how we c... | 24m 44s | ||||||

| 8/9/24 | E150. The OG Society Thought Experiment: Why and How We Share Our Art | Sometimes it can be difficult to see how our own societies and cultures influence us. I have this trick I use to help reveal some of those hidden influences that I call the OG Society Thought Experiment. I imagine how a small pre-capitalist "original society" would have functioned and compare that to my modern capitalist society. Today I use this thought experiment to explore different ways to frame how and why we share our art with the world. Contact me | 26m 16s | ||||||
| 7/26/24 | E149. Are Big Dreams Bad for Us? Learning to Not Miss the Stars | In this episode I take stock of where I am in my creative journey as I contemplate what lies beyond the dreams we hold for ourselves. Are dreams holding us back? Do they ultimately make our lives less happy and satisfying? W.H. Auden's poem, The More Loving One Contact me | 22m 08s | ||||||
| 7/12/24 | E148. Looking for Your Lights in the Dark | Notice: The Kishōtenketsu Workshop I am doing with Andy Mort is coming up next week! You can find more info and sign up a this link. In this episode I discuss two women I've learned about recently who are lights in the dark for me. They inspire me to keep going through tough times, and to not lose hope. Table tennis phenom Zhiying Zeng, who is making her Olympic debut in Paris this summer at the age of 58, reminds me that it's worth it to try for a dream a second time around. And sing... | 30m 33s | ||||||
| 6/28/24 | E147. In Search of Continuities in Our Artistic Identity | I recently discovered a notebook filled with poetry I wrote thirty (!) years ago, and in one fell swoop it reconfigured my understanding of myself as an artist. In this episode I contemplate the threads that define who we are as artists that weave their way through our lifelong body of work (creative or otherwise). And I read one of those thirty-year-old poems (eep)! Find out more about my Kishotenketsu workshop partner, Andy Mort Find me on Instagram Contact me | 33m 12s | ||||||
