More Details from the Creator:
In the short term, I’m excited to get started with Substack's Live and have some conversations with other creatives, especially artists who have a regular creative practice. I’m putting together a Coffee Chat interview series this spring, and I’d love to feature Substack artists and creatives—sharing their work, their process, and the ways they keep their creative practice going. These will be casual chats where we can swap ideas, trade insights, and hype each other up. I'll provide you the questions and topics that we'll cover beforehand, so you can prep in whatever way works best for you.
I’m also open to any collaborations you’ve got going on! I love teaching, doing video, writing tutorials, podcasting—basically, anything that helps people feel more confident in their creativity, tell their story, and understand that the best way to be creative is to make it work for them. If you’ve got a project that aligns, let’s talk. I’m always up for making new friends and finding fun ways to support each other.
Longer term, I’m planning some weekend events and a creative summit, and I’d love to bring in collaborators. I’m looking at what topics are really resonating right now, and zines and journals are at the top of the list. Whether it’s co-hosting a session, leading a workshop, joining a panel discussion, or brainstorming something new together, I want to create spaces where people feel inspired to make and share.
The best collaborations always feel like a natural fit—so if you’re someone who loves habits, storytelling, and making things more accessible, I’d love to work together.
If you've got an idea that I didn't mention here, please don't hesitate to pitch me. I love all sorts of collabs and learning from each other. I also love kind productivity, zines, and intersectional feminism.
Frequency/Timing of Collaboration Opportunities:
I'd like to start doing the Substack Live video chats a few times a month. If they're super popular, we'll add more in.
I'm already recording my podcast live (not on Substack) on Wednesday evenings at 7pm ET. If that's a good fit for you, let me know and we'll get you on the podcast! I've got multiple slots a month open on the podcast. Since I record live (with a small audience) it's much harder to get people available at that specific time, so most of those shows are solo. But, if it works for you—let's make it happen.
