Three Phases of a Book. Plus, End of an Era.

I was recently listening to a painter who recognised three distinct phases that a painting goes through. I realised the phases are exactly the same for a book: Freedom, Faith and Healing. In this ep, I explore this theory and discuss why I think it's so helpful. I think the theory comes from Dianna Shyne, see below.
I also talk about my decision to close our beautiful membership club, the Duck Pond, in May 2025, and what I plan to do after that (aka no idea!).
As usual, lots of general chit chat about the creative life, a studio update and some ideas I'm tossing around for the future of this channel.
