The mushy middle... sounds pretty bad, doesn't it? The mushy middle, or saggy middle syndrome, refers to what happens when you get stuck slogging through the middle of a creative project, whether it's a you're a writer working on a book, an artist working on a painting, a musician creating a piece of music, or a creative entrepreneur launching a business venture. In this episode, which lands in the particularly challenging third week of NaNoWriMo, we'll be drinking a cocktail aptly named "a Lonely Island Lost in the Middle of a Foggy Sea," and getting drunk on the creative possibilities as your host, Dr Karena Akhavein, PhD, gives you a creative pep talk that will help you to firm up that mushy middle and move your creative project forward.
