Q and A # 3 Aug 05, 2021

Show notes

New mic week!

We answer listener questions! Our numbers are usually lower on these episodes but I really recommend you listen. The questions we get are usually relevant to far more people than just the questioners. Think of it as a SUPER EPISODE.

This week we cover:

Is it ever too late to start creating?

When to know we’re done with projects.

How long we should spend planning projects.

Are we a real creative if we don’t want to quite our day job?

Creativity becoming fast fashion.

Crowdfunding.

What we like about the Enneagram system.
