How to find community and re-enchant your life:)

Today we are joined by Dominic de Souza, founder of Legend Fiction and world builder! We cover all kind of fascinating topics so here's a preview: 

1. We talk about Legend Fiction, an online writing community for faith-based writers. What is the origin story behind this platform and why do people love it? 

2. It is possible to have real community online? Dominic and I both think YES! We discuss why and how this is possible. 

3. People want a re-enchanted reality! How does that look like? Dominic shared some insights about angels and quantum mechanics that I had never heard before! He explores philosophies that explore the intersection of the spiritual and material and the work of influential Inkling member Owen Barfield. 

4. Why does fiction matter? Dominic explores deeper layers of why your fiction could play a role in your spiritual journey, the spiritual realm, and the development of human consciousness. 

5. Finally we take a moment to encourage writers and creatives of all types. Some of my favorite quotes include: "Honor your process," "Keep dreaming," "Go down rabbit holes."
