    May 30 2024

    I give my writing and painting a long leash, and often no leash at all. I have to trust it will do its thing. It's all (sometimes frustratingly) counterintuitive

  • A hundred bad ideas to write a single good one
    May 16 2024

    It's thrilling when I post what I think is a shit idea and it resonates with an audience. Especially when all my good ideas don't resonate, and a single bad one does. It reminds me I don't own my creativity

  • The endless daily creative defeats make me grumpy
    May 2 2024

  • We love to make meaning out of everything

    Apr 18 2024
