Up, up, up!
Listen here. It's up. Lemme know what you think. How do you define success for yourself? How has that changed? (Read my anxiety about putting up this episode here!)
The exposure of a solo episode on success
“I'm afraid I can't explain myself, sir. Because I am not myself, you see?” ― Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland NOT YET, anyway. I'm working on it. I'm preparing a solo podcast episode that will launch on Monday and it's scaring the shit out of me. Episode 029 of Artist Soapbox will begin with "I'm… Continue reading The exposure of a solo episode on success
Serious thanks
Friends, My adaptation of Ibsen's classic play, MASTER BUILDER, opens this week. Here's hoping the snow stays out of North Carolina and doesn't derail our schedule! The incredibly endearing Mara Thomas interviewed me about the writing process for Master Builder, the Artist Soapbox podcast, and various other life topics. I'm grateful for the conversation with… Continue reading Serious thanks

This is Part II of a blogversation on the Artist Soapbox site about comparing ourselves to other artists. Read Part I, by Mara Thomas too. ** Over churros at Cocoa Cinnamon, Mara and I spent some time talking about what she termed “low-frequency comparison.” Low-frequency comparison is the kind of comparison you use to make… Continue reading The benefits of comparison

With minimal advertising (some Facebook posting), Artist Soapbox already has 200 unique listeners which has translated to hundreds of downloaded episodes. I believe… Continue reading The launch
Teeth extraction, boot-strapping, social media-mania and other announcements
Announcements like bursts of confetti for you. #1: [Not exactly an announcement -- I just need tooth-courage STAT.] I gotta get my wisdom teeth removed in October, and I'm scared of the sedation. Cuz I like to control when I go unconscious, and I don't like to wake up bloody. I'm not alone in that, right? #2:… Continue reading Teeth extraction, boot-strapping, social media-mania and other announcements
Going solo: a bumpy ride
Welcome to my learning curve! Ten days ago, I launched my first ever interview podcast via the Artist Soapbox. Today, I published my first solo podcast! WOOT.

I podcasted, and I liked it.
ARTIST SOAPBOX has been launched! Wheeee! BIG NEW THING: I recorded a podcast, and I'm so excited that I couldn't wait to share it. Seriously, I am SO excited.
