Find the nudge you’ve been lacking through a customized blend of methods, intuitively suited to your specific creative needs.
As with all projects, each individual writer brings a distinctly unique amount of talent, but also (crucially) personal life experience, to their work. At times, it can be difficult to do the investigation needed to tap into these deep emotional wells. However, I believe that your subterranean emotional well is brimming with creative liquid gold!
I use a combination of tools and methods, most of which center around specific, detailed, constructive story evaluation through one-on-one council. For a general idea, my approach to examining any written work meets at the intersection of these elements: archetypical examination and the classic tenets of creative writing, including character development, story structure and establishment of a strong thematic core. It is my belief that the real alchemy happens when fictional story and the self intertwine resulting in a lasting emotional impact with the power to activate real transformation.
“A man goes to knowledge as he goes to war: Wide awake, with fear, with respect, and with absolute assurance. Going to knowledge or going to war in any other manner is a mistake, and whoever makes it will live to regret his steps. When a man has fulfilled those four requisites, there are no mistakes for which he will have to account. Under such conditions, his acts lose the blundering quality of a fool’s acts. If such a man fails, or suffers a defeat, he’ll have lost only a battle, and there will be no pitiful regrets over that.”
— The Teachings of Don Juan by Carlos Castaneda
