The Title Is How The Work Gets Done--
Until I Change The Title





How the Work Gets Done. It's a workshop title, right? Creativity is just a question of learning the tricks, developing some good work habits, maybe overcoming our fear of failure. Or maybe our fear of success! All very productive. We are Americans, nation of bridge builders. Let's solve the problem and get on with it!


​Only, I don't think there is a problem or that a workshop can solve it.



The Land of Somebody Cares





Meaning is eternal isn’t it? That’s the whole point of our hunger for meaning, right? To have something durable? In the midst of life’s compromises, contradictions, misery and unfairness? In the face of life’s inevitable end?

Un-unh. That’s for audiences. Not for us. Not for artists. We need to know the ins and outs, like a doctor and her patient. We need to know about the pre-cancerous growth on the colon of meaning. We can't be squeamish; we need to get intimate.
