Description

If the best teacher is hindsight, the second best teacher is someone else's hindsight. And when that someone else is a dynamic thinker and artist, even better. In today's episode, we're going to take pocket theories (helpful little theories of the creative game) from some of the greats and apply them to our own work.


These creative philosophies will touch on how to ask for money, a handful of writing tips to make more impact and get more attention, the slickness of comparison, keeping the faith, and one thing you absolutely must stop doing with your creative work, right now this very instant.
