Welcome to the latest episode of "The Pin Tool Podcast," where art meets entrepreneurship. I'm your host, Al Wayman, from Creek Road Pottery LLC, guiding you through the multifaceted world of pottery and business. Today, we're diving into concepts & themes. Each project should have a beginning, middle and end. At each project start one should ask "Who's it for?", "What's it for?", "What change are you trying to make?", and "What story are you trying to tell?" The episode ends with my virtual assistant, Amelia, an Artificial Intelligence Chatbot, reading an entry from the pottery dailies. "The Pots You Never Made."
