ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This week, I’m taking a gentle pause from the essay series on our creative cycles due to a health scare upon returning home from the Eastern Sierra.

This is one of the more overlooked cycles of our craft but totally necessary to really honor the effort of making something…
Farewell fickle algo, and what's next for my work! Today I'll be digging into my choice to take a massive and potentially indefinite break from YouTube. Why did I do it? What has changed? Let's discuss.
