"As an artist, I fall in love with everything, all the time." - never has a statement rang so true. Those that think in the linear don't understand why everything has a meaning and can't be tossed out and forgotten. Eyes of an artist, heart of a poet: the mundane can create music in our soul.
Omg, “think in the linear” makes so much sense to me. My brain looks like a wall in a crime-solving tv show with string and photos and maps all over. It’s beautiful and exhausting! 😂
Congratulations on getting a new agent! I know exactly what you mean. It's hard to weed out your ideas when you feel a connection with them and can see the potential in each one. Having someone in your corner who can help you separate the wheat from the chaff is everything. And I love the bit about constraints, too. That's a big part of my focus these days.
I’m stoked for all of the new that is just around the bend - I can’t wait to see where it all goes. That collage work is destined to be a very very special kidlit something - I can’t wait to see what. Here’s to Jen agenting it all! She’s the best.
Enjoy London! Look forward to reading about it all, my friend.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this, Brian.

I hope your next book involves your collage work. So lovely!
Major congrats on all of this, Brian!

You know I’m super excited about all of this. Can’t wait to follow your London journey and I’m so jealous! Maybe next year! 👍🏻
Bah! You're doing a thing. Get that MFA.
I can do both! 😋
