I was privileged to see this awesome show @melbournefringe by the incredibly talented @scoutboxall. Masterful blend of sharp comedy - songs and sharing their experience of mania and near death. The light and shade of living with being mentally dicey. Awesome. See it 10/10.

Just finished reading @debbiemillman Why Design Matters. Every word matters. What a ride of discovery. The great humans who shared their experiences through the nurturing Debbie Millman. It is a manual for a creative paradigm. Can’t wait to tune in to the podcasts now.

Your ability to speak clearly is enhanced by reading (not listening) to books and by writing and journaling in complete sentences. Texting, voice dictation and audio books are wonderful but degrade articulation. Conversely, structured writing aids structured speech.
