Creative Guts is bringing you something a little different today! In this extra special episode, host Laura Harper Lake interviews Sarah Wrightsman, essayist, fiber artist, nonprofit director, podcast creator, and all-around overachiever. Hear about Sarah’s journey as a nonfiction essayist, inspired by the likes of Henry David Thoreau, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Malcolm Gladwell, and Matthew Desmond. Find out more than you needed to know about cross stitch, embroidery, and pattern making and the winding path Sarah took to get to where she is now with fiber arts. Thanks in large part to Creative Guts, Sarah is empowered to dabble in all the arts: in the last year, Sarah has played in the worlds of cold-forging and jewelry, block printing, video editing, and singing and songwriting. Tune in to hear why Creative Guts means so much to Sarah in this out-of-the-box episode!

You can take a peek at Sarah’s writing on Stay Work Play’s site (https://stayworkplay.org/blog/author/sarah/) and hang out with Sarah on Instagram (www.Instagram.com/wrightswoman) and take her up on her offer of free patterns!

In this episode of Creative Guts, co-hosts Laura Harper Lake and Sarah Wrightsman sit down with Sarah Koff, a printmaker living and working in Exeter, New Hampshire. Sarah’s work — hand-carved and printed woodcuts and linocuts — features a heavy dose of nature, but she also makes custom work from block-printed house and pet portraits to logos. Sarah’s career as an artist has evolved over the years from a new mom and recent NH transplant selling handmade greeting cards at the farmer’s market to a full-blown artist. In response to her daughter’s fondness for koalas and the fires in Australian, Sarah raised $6118 in support of two organizations working on bushfire relief efforts selling adorable koala prints. As a mom, Sarah is always prepared to answer the “What’s your favorite color?” question, and thanks to her fake British dad, her British accent isn’t half bad! Listen to hear Sarah’s goals for 2020, and how sometimes the block really is more meaningful than the print.

In this episode of Creative Guts, co-hosts Laura Harper Lake and Sarah Wrightsman sit down with Becky Karush of Read To Me with Becky Karush, a podcast that was inspired by the gateless writing method. Becky believes that when we read aloud great writing, and listen for what we love, we become more powerful writers. Read To Me helps her listeners practice two elements of the gateless writing method: listening for and mirroring back what is great on the page. Tune in to this episode to hear the beautiful story of a writer who didn’t write for 16 years, and how Becky’s persistence and willingness to be vulnerable helped her return to writing, led her to becoming a trained instructor in the gateless writing method, and inspired the creation of Read to Me with Becky Karush.

In this episode of Creative Guts, co-hosts Laura Harper Lake and Sarah Wrightsman sit down with Marcia Wood Mertinooke, an interdisciplinary artist living and working in Goffstown, New Hampshire. Marcia has a BA in Studio Art from the University of NH and is a member of the NH chapter of the Women’s Caucus for Art. Once an aspiring ceramicist, Marcia never planned on being an oil painter and printmaker. She has a way of finding beauty and insight in every day, mundane objects. Listen to hear the surprising reason she paints self-portraits, how she collaborates with her ten-year-old son, and — the question Laura always needs to know — what does Marcia do with her blocks once she’s done printing?

Check out Marcia Wood Mertinooke’s work on the web at www.mwmertinooke.com, on Facebook at www.facebook.com/seriousmarcia, and on Instagram at www.instagram.com/m_w_mertinooke. And, learn more about the Women’s Caucus for Art, here: www.wcanh.org
