Being apart doesn’t mean we have to be alone – catch up on our conversation about CONNECTION, as we share our favourite pieces of writing in response to our summer theme. We’re also talking about creativity, feedback and why it’s so important to share your work.
This episode, we kick off with the words of Toni Morrison:
‘I’m a believer in the power of knowledge and the ferocity of beauty, so from my point of view, your life is already artful – waiting, just waiting, for you to make it art.’ Toni Morrison
