Pausing
Dear Creative Dispatch 9 . 1 . '26 Dear Creative, What's in a moment of pause? I was graciously offered a spot (thanks Heidi!!) in month-long cohort hosted by Billy Korinko of the Solidago Institute on the impact of a strategic pause, focused on the book Do Pause: You are not a To Do List by Robert Poynton: "In general, we don't pay much attention or give much importance to the spaces in between all the tasks. I think we should. In life, as in art, you need to step back to see that. The...
thinking of selling online... this is your sign 💫
Dear Creative Dispatch 8 . 26 . '26 Dear Creative, I've been supporting artists and underdog brands as they cut through the noise for decades now, and I'm wondering... are you interested in selling your art or expertise online? I've been testing a store launch program where I help artists prioritize process on the road to launch, thanks in part to 8 years working in the e-commerce industry, and learning hands-on what works and doesn't online. Think of it as one part creative encouragement,...
Introducing Vol. 1: Woodstock '29
Dear Creative Dispatch 8 . 17 . '26 Dear Creative, The statement with Collection: Vol. 1 is simple: Every human is welcome. Like any good party, the guest list for our imaginary Woodstock ’29 got a *bit* long. Make no mistake, this collection is a commentary on the way capitalism impacts everything. Today, that’s undeniably impacted the ways we connect, and the culture created by our collective experience. AI might be the lead representative of the flattening of culture at this moment, but...

Keep Going
Dear Creative Dispatch 8 . 13 . '26 Dear Creative, Ideas are everywhere. So why is it so hard to come up with a great one? Jason Santa Maria writes: Over time, I came to realize that the only way to get to the good ideas was to trudge through all the obvious and bad ones first. For well over a decade, I've kept track of every idea I can write down – whether for a film, article, or other creative project – in text documents. Pretty quickly, I noticed something. My ideas got better. And the...
What Dr. King (And Many Others) Said
Dear Creative Dispatch 1 . 19 . '26 Dear Creative, What does it mean to practice nonviolence in a violent world? Can we make space for resistance AND hope? 👁️🫦👁️ One question I’ve asked myself many times over the last five years: What does it mean To be a writer In this world At this time? Three truths in a world that rarely makes sense: Neutrality can cause harm Everything ends up in someone else’s trash or garage sale The only moment is now And while I'm not sure if this is the worst (I'm...
Ducks fly together (and other signs you’re doing it right)
Dear Creative Dispatch 1 . 16 . '26 Dear Creative, Today I saw a flying V that looked like a heart. It gave me the spark I needed to talk a bit about struggling, and how I’m viewing goals now that we’re in the thick of it. It's frigid right now, yeah? Seeing those ducks made me think a lot about the story of The Ugly Duckling, one I loved as a kid, and how a flock gains strength and confidence when they are all headed in the same direction. Something I noticed as a young parent: look just...
