TitlePendingAudio
Summary: In 1998, I recorded 11 original songs and then set out on the road to see if what I’d made resonated with people. I’m still at it, with books and stories, a podcast and, yes... more songs... and looking back on that history, I took note of a few themes, practices and principles in my creative process that might, I hoped, shed an inspired light on your creative process should I share them. The stories and reflections that will make up this series first appeared in the book “Title Pending,” which is currently sitting on the amazon sales list somewhere between the most recent James Patterson and an instructional booklet on how to keep a platypus as a pet. Honestly, I didn’t capture these 21 stories and thoughts in order to become a best seller or anything like that. Instead, I simply believe what you make matters and I that reading or listening to these reflections will inform, enrich and inspire your work. Making them available as a podcast means they’re more readily available to you, more portable and better suited to fit your life as you’re living it, which is where your work is taking place.

Welcome to the Title Pending Audio Series; a collection of readings from the book Title Pending, focused on moments in my own creative history I hope shed an inspired light on yours.
