What Makes Stories Stick? Let’s Talk Strategies That Work

Howdy Reader! If you’re anything like me, you're slowly walking up from the football and tryptophan hangover from overindulging in yesterday’s Thanksgiving festivities. If you’re reading this from somewhere other than the U.S. I hope you had a productive Thursday with many, fewer calories. And now, the Christmas season is upon us!

Howdy Reader!Quick question... Have you ever wished you could gather a few smart creators around a table, explain a challenge you're dealing with, and get honest feedback from people who actually understand the business? That’s the idea behind a mastermind group. And this week on Creator News Live, we’re doing something a little different. Instead of our usual format, we’re going to run a mastermind session that Paul Gowder and I do weekly LIVE, so you can see how it works. I promise we won't...
Howdy Reader! I’ve mentioned this a couple of times on the show and podcast, but I’ve been fascinated by the process of creativity and how people can lean into habits and tools that can help you be more creative. Last week, Conor and I went through some of the most impactful books we read, and many of those had to do with creativity. One underlying current in the research that I’ve found is this: unplugging is one of the biggest ways to boost your creativity. A recent trend is leaning into...
Howdy Reader! I know. It’s Friday, and if your week's been anything like mine, the ole’ brain cells are a little bit fried this morning. So…. Here’s the TL;DR version. Conor and I are doing a show today all about the top books that shaped how we think. You can watch it LIVE here! It’s really happening! A NEW show all for creators and makers.
