Show Notes Chapter Markers

All of us have read something in our lives that has shaped us. There is at least one author/filmmaker/musician that has influenced our art whatever that may be. Where would we be without them. 

This podcast looks at the idea of finding you authors that can influence you. I share several writers that have influenced me and some readings from their works which have inspired me the most. We look at legends of fantasy epics like Robert Jordan, to J.K. Rowling, Magical Connoisseur, to Emily Dickenson, purveyor of the rule breaking poetry.

Key knowledge you will acquire in this episode:

  • Why having influences is so important
  • What to look out for in a great influence
