Listen Later

As first an artist and now an author, Scotsman John Morris has successfully bypassed settling into a creative niche. His painting subject matter varies widely, and when he turned his focus to writing and publishing, he designed a book that’s strikingly original in every aspect.
The Battles That We All Face not only combines his art and writing, but he approached the design of the book to create a work of art.
John’s vision was to write a book that would inspire people to grow through their struggles. He had many opportunities to practice his philosophy while self-publishing a book that presented unusual printing challenges. Several times he faced the choice between a timely publication and missing his self-imposed deadline for the sake of a high-quality product and always chose quality.
While working on The Battles That We All Face, his vision expanded to include an ongoing relationship with the people he reached through his book. He established a significant social media platform, and its ability to reach people inspired him to develop a series of podcasts which furthers the message of his book.
Though John’s publishing journey has been unique, the lessons he’s learned are universal. Learn from John how setting creativity free can help win the battles that we all face.
