Creativity for Good is a newsletter about turning creativity into actionable good in the world. As creatives, we express our values through our work — and in today’s burning mess of a society, more and more of us are taking that expression off the page through networking, crowdfunding, lending our voices, work, and platforms to the causes we care about, and turning our craft into action that makes an impact.

Keep scrolling for more details on what to expect in your inbox. I’m glad you’re here. Let’s create something good.

what to expect

Every month or so, you’ll get an email with notes on creativity, notes on action, and notes on connecting the two. Every other month, I’ll share a Q&A with another creative — authors, artists, musicians, and others — sharing their experiences, their values, and what they’re doing to make an impact.

full disclosure

This is also my author newsletter! I’ll also be using this newsletter to keep folks stay up-to-date on my books, including early access to news, events, sneak peeks, and insider secrets.

about me
