Sacrifices, Alignment, and Character Autonomy
from Emerging Writers Community Podcast Hosted by Joy Notoma
Host Joy Notoma speaks to novelist and short story writer, NK Iguh, on the way multiple creative projects sustain each other and more. We explore the following questions: How do you manage working on multiple book length projects at once? How do you make sure that the way you spend your time is aligned with your purpose? What is character autonomy and what does it have to do with alignment? This episode demonstrates the power of communal wisdom, a core value of the podcast. NK introduced Joy to the concept of character autonomy and participants helped to explain why it’s important.
