Dear
Ones:
I recently launched a new podcast called MAGIC LESSONS, in which I reach out to real people to talk about their joys, their yearnings, and their obstacles surrounding the creative process.
The reaction so far to the podcast has been terrific, and I wanted to let you know about it — in
case you are not already listening!
You may remember that not long ago I put out a call, asking if anyone wanted to be part of this project. I was looking for people who wanted to be coached by me. I got thousands of replies, and I was able to select a varied group of wonderful creators to talk to and to work with. I will be sharing those encounters on the MAGIC LESSONS podcast all summer
long.
I also decided to reach out to some expert “guest witnesses” in order to add more depth and color to the podcasts. So every other week, I call in an established creator, to help advise the people I am coaching.
During my first podcast episode, I spoke with Erin. Erin is a blogger and a
mom, who is trying to get the courage and motivation to start working on her first book. I decided that my good friend Cheryl Strayed (author of WILD) might have some extra advice for Erin, so I called in Cheryl during Episode Two, to add her wisdom to the mix.I hope you’ll enjoy these episodes, and all the episodes of MAGIC LESSONS. This has been more fun for me (and more educational) than I could ever have anticipated.

There will be more episodes coming
over the summer — including more visits from some terrific guest experts.
I hope you’ll follow along!
