About this episode

Tim shares a deeply personal episode reflecting on life, creativity, and family during a poignant time around Mother's Day.

Tim takes a break from reviewing old magazine issues and instead delivers a deeply personal episode about life, creativity, family, grief, and reflection. Recorded around Mother’s Day in Australia, Tim opens up about missing his late mother and mother in law, celebrating his wife Heidi, and navigating the emotional weight that comes with the season. He also shares updates on the Open Contract Challenge, recent writing successes, local author events, family milestones, travel adventures, and the continued growth of Heidi’s home cooking business, The Purple Kitchen. From blind date books and historical carriage rides to British crime dramas and creative burnout, this episode feels less like a review show and more like a heartfelt check in from a friend trying to balance creativity with the chaos of everyday life.
