Summary

The world is falling apart. Whether that’s your personal world, your community’s world, or the literal world around you, how do you cope? As a creative especially, what do you do? How do you keep writing, quilting, drawing, creating? The answer might be that you don’t. The answer might be that you do. The answer might be that you switch mediums, switch stories, switch modes. It might be that you wait it out. It might be ready for you right out of the gate. Regardless of what you do (or don’t), we believe that the way that you process is going to be deeply unique, personal, and that, critically, there is no right answer. It’s okay for you to be easy on yourself; you deserve grace and kindness, especially from yourself. www.saltandsagebooks.com References: “Free” by Florence and the Machine “Everybody Supports Women” by Sophie Isella Burnout by Emily and Amelia Nagoski Come As You Are by Emily Nagoski My Neighbor Totoro, written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki
