Creative Writing Initiative with Jacob Sam-La Rose (iPad Pros - 0192)

Jacob Sam-La Rose was born in London in 1976. He was managing director of a web development studio before becoming a freelance writer and editor. He is the Artistic Director of the London Teenage Poetry SLAM, Editor-in-Chief of Metaroar.com, and an editor for flipped eye press. He also facilitates a range of literature-in-education, creative writing and spoken word programmes through schools, arts centres and other institutions. 

We dive into a bunch of different topics including his custom ergonomic keyboard, the apps he uses to write and run his writing initiative, and why the iPad is the perfect computer for him.
