Last episode of 2017! And I decided to end the year talking about...well, myself.
Okay, not really. But at least, not entirely.
In this episode, I talk about the creative notion of "being yourself" and "being unique". As a storyteller, I've often heard people tell me to be either of these things if I'm going to "make it" as a writer. However, as experience has taught me, I've arrived at some insights I thought were worth mentioning. Specifically, what's really being told to us when we hear these phrases and how you can figure out the best way to make the most of them.
Hope you enjoy. And before I go, a big thank you to everyone who listened, subscribed, and showed support as this podcast got off the ground. Looking forward to more great things in 2018!
