Thank you for your patience while we make some more changes to the Go Creative! program. I'm running a poll so if you'd like your opinion to be included in those changes, check it out below.

I've made some decisions already.

The podcast will resume next week, with some small changes to the format.  Each episode will shares my current creative landscape and offers a related poem, principle, and practice prompt. (What a lot of p-words!)

The topic next week will be: ‘Not God. Not the Universe. The Creative Spirit'. (Yes, it does matter what you call it)

Go Creative! Workshop & Open Studio

I'm trying to strengthen our accountability check-ins under the 3 Go Creative! hats and looking at ways to improve this program–namely practical supports that will help you to create more fluently.

The Open Studio bit–where you bring your drafts, dreams and dilemmas and we all help to get your creative show on the road–will probably stay the same but I'm not entirely sure what's most useful for the Workshop component.

Below are some suggestions. Tick any that feel good to you and drop me an email to let me know — or even better tell me if there's something you'd love that's missing.

The polling on this has begun on Patreon, and the percentages below refer to the voting there.

• “Buddy System” pairing with fortnightly check-ins (I'll provide a pairing system and a call template, you connect with each other) 11%
• More coaching on the Go Creative! tools and techniques (Definitions, practices, principles etc) 33%
• Live Zoom co-working time blocks (Silent “do the thing now” time—cameras on or off.) 33%
• Something else? (please email me details) 22%

I'd love to hear your thoughts. I can't guarantee I'll take up every suggestion, but I'll certainly give it a good go!
