INSPIRED BY
Being around other creative people. Listening to their process and how they handle things like motivation and procrastination. When I am with creative people, I feel a shared understanding of pursuing passion and that fire is contagious. Certain spaces and times of day also inspire me.
EXPLORING
More writing projects and the polishing of my three books. The technical aspect of looking for a literary agent and/or a publisher. Even considering that six or seven of my stories that I do at storytelling might easily make a one-man show.
