In an interview, when asked where the idea for songs come from, Michael Jackson gestured vaguely and whispered "out there."
In this episode, I discuss "where creativity comes from," drawing on perspectives from the ancient Greeks, other writers, and myself.
I discuss developing yourself as a channel, using completion of works to increase inspiration, and how showing up for the work sends you more ideas.
As creatives, we need to develop ourselves as *channels* of the work, rather than seeing our job as being the "genius" behind it.
