Creativity Sparks: Write Like Your Parents Are Dead Again
from The Spark File with Susan Blackwell and Laura Camien · host Susan Blackwell and Laura Camien
Many people have the desire to spin their lived experience into their creative self-expression, Susan and Laura included. This desire can present a conundrum as these creations can feature people other than the creator, or have ideas in them that might make a loved one uncomfortable, or are about a topic that some close to us might consider to be taboo. So how do we create with freedom and without fear? In this episode, Susan and Laura turn to the works of Banksy, Anne Lamott, David Sedaris, David Wellington, and more while discovering one approach to creating without fear: the idea of creating like your loved ones are never going to read it, hear it, or see it. Or, put another way, creating like your parents are dead…again. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
